The essence cupby *transe

Traditional Art / Paintings / Surreal

Sometimes we dream together
dragging the sky closer
and then I become you
gazing at the stars,
hiding away from myself
spinning, half-seas over falling
you're drawn down and I weep
too many words to whisper
The night, is a poem,
a cup of void, spilled by its muse
Sipping from your oblivion
her last breath, like a smoke,
smothering reveries
death stings like dawn
From stillness
we're descending inside ourselves.

I was gonna write only a couple of verses but I don't know how they ended up becoming a poem T_T
I've recently read in a book that the essence of life is void. I tend to believe that it's true, I always thought that in order to become everything you must reduce yourself to nothing. It sounds like a paradox, since words only seem to complicate the process of understanding...

The colours and the atmosphere are so beautiful and melancholy, dreamy and mysterious. It reminds me of the Cups in the Tarot, as they symbolize emotions, and you can also draw them reversed (upside-down), so the interpretation changes... I think I sort of understand the idea that you need to reduce yourself to nothing to become everything...

Thank you. I've actually been thinking about painting another tarot card The High Priestess (I've already illustrated The World), it's definitely on my (long) list. I suppose I cannot escape this atmosphere, I'm trapped in it
