'A Silent Plea'

A Silent Plea oil painting

Please.

This is all that I have.

It must be enough.

Early 2025 I experienced unrequited infatuation.

I wondered what it would take for it to be reciprocated.

What do they like. How could I be that.

What could I sacrifice.

There's a terribly fine line with loving someone and losing yourself.

Enveloped by infatuation. Enamoured by their person.

An addiction.

You must become whatever they desire. It is the only fulfilment.

A desire to be loved.

A silent plea.

Here, with her head down, her face is whatever you imagine it to be.

She is whoever you want her to be.

Just as she intended.

After creation, I also saw a darker feeling.

A desperation for it all to end.

Please, take my heart. Take all that I am.

I just want it to end.
