when we met, you had knives in your back
i had knives in mine too

we talked about everything and nothing
and we tripped and fell in love

we turned around and pulled out the knives
that we couldn't have reached on our own
then we bled and we healed
and we kissed each other's scars

but we were left holding more knives than anyone needs
and throwing them back to the people they came from
would only reopen our wounds

so we melted them down
and we sold the metal
and we danced in the glow of our profits

and we bought plane tickets.

Words, my own. Here.

Thank you :) The poem was written long before the picture was taken, and they just seemed to fit together.

The tat on my neck didn't hurt at all. It was highly tickly, and I enjoyed getting it. :)

Wow, this has to be my favorite of your whole gallery...

The photo and the poem are...just so beautiful...

The poem makes me think of two people, who were both hurt too many times. They help eachother heal, but they wanted 'revenge' on the ones that hurt them in the past. But they wanted too much, so it made things worse. And in the end they end up letting go and commiting suicide together.

I dunno, just me. lol. Prolly darker, or abit off, from the real/original meaning.

Yar, I love your blood effects. soooo pretttyyyyy~

Keep making beautiful photos! :heart:

It has a much less dark meaning (although I do like that it gives off a dramatic edge like that!). It's about my husband and I. We had some really hard times a few years back and couldn't get away from the people who were hurting us (financial reasons and all that). Because we were always surrounded by the fuckers (and these were people who weren't just satisfied with causing a bit of pain, they were selfish bastards who had to completely destroy everything) it kept getting worse and worse, and we didn't know how to cope or what to do but we knew that trying to get revenge in any sense wasn't worth the effort. Eventually we managed to save up enough money to move to another country and get away from it all. And that's what the plane tickets bit is about :)
