Nobody's Story












Nobody's story, is just a few sketches based around something i wrote.
I wanted to eventually do some full size pieces from this, but i still haven't worked into it.


I hear the waves like thunder when i wake.
They cause my visual world to explode, leaving
me in this dark and empty place.
This emptiness is only momentary as it is almost instantly
filled with voices, all so angry and aggressive.
The voices fade and although it seems as though they
have left, I realise that they are not 'voices', but my own thoughts.
One of these thoughts manifests itself.
It hates me as I'm a coward who clings to life, it contemplates our
death with joy, and because he revels in this, so do I, only with fear.
I rise from these shadows of thoughts and fears, back into reality.
I spend the day wandering, trying to avoid my own thoughts,
but thoughts are consuming, and I slowly become engulfed.
I am no longer sure of the idea of life and reality.
What is time, and what is time spent.
The world is slowly becoming irrelevant, as is my body and mind.
Everything is a blur as i fall.

But it all means nothing.


This is an interpretation of someones daily life, who was afflicted buy a mental illness caused by heroin, that person is nobody, because he can no longer mentaly be 'somebody'.
