Drowning

_{There comes a time when you feel dead inside. There comes a time
when the beauty around you can't heal you. It hurts you even
more, drowning you in a sea of memories...}  

I made this image two years ago while being in an emotional tornado. But time has a way of putting things into their right perspective and I came to
look upon that time and the description of that image with a bemused embarrassment, wondering how on earth I managed to drown in a teaspoon of water
(that's a Greek saying)

Until just today, when I found out that someone that has been a constant sun-ray in my life has been diagnosed with a terminal disease. Exactly 14 years
ago, to the very day, it was the first time I touched him. Seems like yesterday, seems like a thousand years and lives ago. And suddenly it feels like
drowning again, although I still believe this is some kind of a big, ugly cosmic joke.

I guess this image is a kind of weird prayer right now "Please, don't let it be so"...
