Lingering Despair.

Dress: Urban Outfitters($15), Boots: Steven Madden($99), Rings: Target & Forever 21($4-$8)

Open eyes see nothing

Life fails her everyday

Every moment is filled with regret

She closes her eyes and sees peace

The stars beneath her skin

still into dark corners

desire, hunger

demand flight

but somehow it asphyxiates

into stillness

grappling between memories 

and dreams

With her days spent in despair

her eyes gazing out

with a wretched soul,

she sits still with only a sigh to spare

Pieces of three different poems, by each of us, edited together to create one.

This look was inspired by the photography of Lara Jade - who is a freakin' genius - we only recently discovered her because of someone we know, let's call her JM. If you go on Book II - second photograph, of her portfolio on her website, you will see the resemblance - after that it kind of took it's own life and this is what we have.

The title of this post is the title of A's blog, it seemed fitting for this post so we used it.
