Description

Forever You,

I felt like the content of this piece warranted some sort of description. Yes this is me, and yes I have no clothes on. Now before everyone freaks out (you probably have already) I want you to hear me out to understand this.

I'm in a long distance relationship, have been for the past 5+ months and I'm starting to realize the hardships in it. I've been listening to the song "Thirty-Three" by The Smashing Pumpkins for the past few days and regardless of what the true meaning of the song is, there are some obvious themes of love and struggle in it, and I felt like that was something I've been connecting with lately. Now don't worry, everything is fine and I've honestly never been happier, but that doesn't mean relationships aren't hard either.

Now as for the content of the piece, I took some other photos of myself wearing different clothes, and I felt like this fit the best because nude photos don't always need to represent something sexual; in this case I think it shows something very vulnerable. The location of this photo was very important because this is essentially the place I was in when this relationship really was unfolding hence the computer and computer screen behind me. I wish I did a better job at this, but I'm holding my cell phone in my hands too, which has been more or less the most important tool I've owned since I started dating my girlfriend. Communication is huge in any relationship, especially when you aren't seeing your loved one for months straight.

Anyways, hope you read all of that! And hope I don't regret posting this :D

I just realized that is is highly reminiscent of Peter Gabriel's album cover for "birdy"
