~~ beautiful world.
Aug. 23rd, 2003 06:47 amso. i read the last chapter of `beautiful world' around sunrise. strangely fitting, actually. and i couldn't really come up with anything to say-- partly 'cause i was/am falling asleep, partly because instead of feeling -sad-, i felt strangely peaceful and faded, like the world had become softer and more fragile, and somehow more luminous. i didn't want it all to be so... delicately sublime, like a watercolor painting, but it wouldn't move, just sort of floating across my mind. there was pain somewhere out there, but i couldn't feel it, it wasn't -real-. there was only this feeling of shimmering sadness, like a dawn rainbow after a nighttime rain.
so instead of a review, there's this.

I wish I could draw or create art like this. I see things, feel things that I yearn to express in a form like this, without words, but my attempts fall far short of what I am striving for. So I am left to find words, and that, usually, turns out better than my pictures.
You did a great job capturing that essence of Beautiful World. The sun and the light and the lightness. Wow.
:D
Thanks!
