Wait for Sleep
Standing by the window
Eyes upon the moon
Hoping that the memory
will leave her spirit soon
She shuts the doors and lights
And lays her body on the bed
Where images and words are
running deep
She has too much pride to pull
the sheets above her head
So quietly she lays and waits
for sleep
She stares at the ceiling
And tries not to think
And pictures the chains
She's been trying to link again
But the feeling is gone
And water can't cover her memory
And ashes can't answer her pain
God give me the power to take
breath from a breeze
And call life from a cold metal frame
In with the ashes
Or up with the smoke
from the fire
With wings up in heaven
Or here, lying in bed
Palm of her hand to my head
Now and forever
curled in my heart
And the heart of the world
Finisheeeeeed~!!!
This took forever... as always, I'm not totally happy with how it came out... colors are too much bright and there's too much contrast between the girl and the boy (yes, the one in white clothes it's actually a BOY xD). They are supposed to be the Sorcerers of the Light and the Darkness Clan... but they still look too much different for me, even knowing that!
BG is crappy, as always, but I will never be able to get good background... -____-
This pictures was inspired by a wonderful song of Dream Theater, from the Images and Words album. Take a look at the link and listen to it!
Wait for Sleep
Wish I could do a better piece for this amazing song... -___-

Wow, this is really powerful. I think it could even be better if you had a more established light source. If it came from one object it could really make this picture even more dynamic!
Very cool, the details are meticulous and great!

I must say this is a beautiful piece. I think the two character designs are better to be different from each other, it gives it more contrast and also shows that they have different personalities. :3 The girl being the more seemingly wild one while the boy more conserved and holy. Also I think the background is fine, if it's too busy it will take away from the feeling that you want things to be peaceful. Maybe a simple border around the cosmos bit but that's all really.
Anyway, I adore the ivory lace details in the boy's clock and how serene he looks as well as the girl. Their outfits are beautiful and unique. I love how much detail is put into the earth from the clouds to the terrain and the curls of the girl's hair draping down over it. n_n

It does do the song justice! It has the feeling of the song! I think they go nicely together
