i sort of wish someone were lying here beside me. to just watch the way i hold my pen and the way i form my "l's"and to watch the way i closed my eyelids at the end of each sentence. maybe i'd kiss them and maybe we'd go outdside in the cold and just look out into the night together or maybe we'd drink hot chocolate and whisper our secrets or maybe we'd just lay down on my bed side by side, hand in hand.

For my comment take everything that everybody else has said and put it all in a big pot. Then add some spices (I almost said 'spics' :O sorry latino flickr population) and maybe some vegetables for good measure.
Basically I'm trying to say that I love this.
Megan Caros (43 months ago | reply)

seanlamonby. [deleted] (43 months ago | reply)
hey, thanks for the birthday wishes...
i don't really have anything to say at the moment, but i like this.... and i can't help but cringe when i say "this"... because this isn't just a photo, this is your soul and your soul isn't a subject to be defined by lighting (moreso light) or focus (moreso lack thereof) or colours (or lack thereof once again) or anything, well, maybe in some cases it can be, i don't know.
and maybe we all want someone, but some people need it so much more than others, and i suppose, they're the ones who find someone, or... they're the ones who get found.
to be saved, we have to save someone else.
love you.
btw, sorry if this is disconnected and doesn't make a lot of sense, i'm pretty tired. ):

gorgeous

I'm sorry to be so unoriginal, but for lack of a better word your photos are....fantastic. Amazing?
Your commentary is so personal, and the strange thing is that they always seem to magically match my mood.
I really wish I had the guts to spill my guts and see what people think of them. That's really brave of you to do.
nikki.jane (43 months ago | reply)
that is such a beautiful entry. beautiful. it's so relatable and you described it amazingly:) i'm sorry though.
i love how you're kind a silhouette, but you can still see some little details like in your shirt and in your expression.
you've done it again, olivia:)
olivia bee (43 months ago | reply)
oh sean. i love you so much.
murakami.kenta (43 months ago | reply)
haha I just read Sean's comment.
That was deep shit.... even if he sounds like hes falling asleep : ]

You sounded lonely. I'm lonely too. But I feel great because every time I pray, I know He's watching me from every where. That kind of makes me feel less lonely.
Amazing capture by the way. Love the natural lighting most definately. Good job.
