Make Us Red

Happy Birthday, Yami. I you! I hope today was one of the best birthdays of your life though we did a lot of hopping about and whatnot. ^_^ I'm glad to have had so much fun seeing all three of us going around the city. Memories are best when we're happy.

Back ground is sooooo plain.... But I thought it would have looked nicer if it was white almost like everything else in the picture. There's some blue rays but I think I did them too lightly... This picture most of all is very very symbolic for my friends and I.

I wanted to show wherever Krappy and Shi touched Yume's body, it would bleed red and soak into their clothes. Yume's dress may have been white before she put it on and now the same thing's happening to the others' clothing. And they don't care and embrace her more, symbolizing all the pain and dirt on her will rub off. The closer we get the more soaked we'll be.

But who cares? What are washing machines for..?

You may dirty and taint everything you touch, but like hell are we stupid enough to let that persuade us away. You're not the only one who has to suffer nor are you the only one with scars that never stop bleeding. It's the red, taint, and blood that makes us closer cause if we can feel the wet warmth spread. Feeling's just another confirmation that we're not dead.

Besides a little color doesn't hurt.

Poem:
"Even though today'll only be today
And maybe in the end, everything's pretend.
I think it's totally okay
To let your rain drain into our clothes.
I don't want to feel anything
Other than the warmth of our bodies,
So hold each other and say,

'Today, I'm going to be okay.

Tomorrow's gonna go our way,
And Yesterday's gone from today.'
March ahead leaving footsteps red
Live back to back,
Tied by fate and heart,
And run towards the golden ark.

Come on, Come on, it's been a race from the start.

We're not meant to last forever,
Doesn't mean we won't be together."
