“Words in Water”
Photography and
stitching
Image One: As
I lay back in the water I am contemplating my existence, the words said about
me rush through my mind. Fat, Ugly, Fake, Used. My eyes are stitched closed, my lips sealed and my ears
submerged, I refuse to accept the criticisim and negativity. All words I hold back my words trying
not to speak. When people stare at me all they see is a fony someone worthless.
It was my childhood that built me to where I am the torn pieces of memories
have slowly been sewn back together over my life. My existence is
insignificant. I am longing for the freedom to speak my mind. The scarlet red
of my soul and hope is so minuscule it almost
isn’t there but a slight glimmer has begun to form.
