The Truest Friend.

If I could do anything, I'd bring you a rainbow, so that you would see colors, when the rest of the world is gray.
I would take your troubles away, and toss them into the sea, drowning your fears,
I would cry your every tear, so that you would feel joy and peace, and I would protect you, so that you would never fight alone.
If I could be anything, I'd be to you what you are to me. I would be your beacon shining brightly if ever you lost your way.
I would be your solace and be your strength. If ever you tire from flight, I will carry you while you rest your wings.
If I could say

_{This piece is very dear to me. In all of my time on this site, I've gotten to know some amazing people. I never dreamed of something like this, but it really is astonishing how much a person's friendship can change another person's life.

I know many people here, and many more people know me. I really appreciate each and every one of you, for all of your kindness, and love, and support. I've had many battles over the years, and you guys have reminded me that I am not alone, and I have not forgotten any of you. You are all dear to me in many ways.

The song "Dearest"
by Ayumi Hamasaki.

Dedicated to:

Everyone. New friends, old friends, people on the shoutboard, close friends, and all those dear to my heart. Thank you for everything. I love you all.}

AzrielSometimes, the smallest feeling can blossom into something beyond control. It’s like fate; the paths of life that intertwine endlessly, most of them narrow and dead-ended; thick with jagged stones and sharp thorns all about.
They say that things happen for a reason, and that it is a divine plan; as if I am one to be bound by knitted strings that insanity itself wove; the madness of destiny’s uncertainty in undertow, and Death as the puppet master.
It’s just the same as a classic teasing session. Showing someone of poverty their biggest dreams, and then saying they will never come true because fortune f Azriel

Because You Are LoveIf love is strong enough to brave the mightiest storm, Then my love could move mountains, and the Earth beneath it.
If love is fragile, and always radiant with beauty, Then my love is delicate like gentle flowers, whose elegancy could touch your soul.
If love is eternal and never grows old, Then my love is everlasting, growing stronger with each day.
If love is infinite, and can never be measured, Then my love extends beyond the universe, and reaches higher than Heaven.
If love is hot like the sun, and lights up your life, Then my love is an inferno, its rays al Because You Are Love

FreedomI.
There are times when I feel like I’m encaged within a glass box. At these times, my mind succumbs to frightening observations and wraithlike convictions; the true reality of my surroundings. I am utterly disgusted with all the venom and bile the state of the world appears to be, yet I cannot seem to look away.
II.
Sometimes I think of myself as a masochist, for I seem to enjoy placing myself in the strangest of situations. I know I will be hurt in the end, but I walk into this trap anyway, always seeking to suffer, and see the bigger picture from it. Pleasure is pain, and pain is beauty, and Freedom

The Brightest StarI.
When I was young, I gazed up at the sky in hopes of finding the brightest star to wish upon. One night, I found it, and I wished to fly up through the clouds to reach it, and make it shine brighter for you.

I had my heart on my sleeve that night, but I was too shy to breathe a word of it to you.
II.
The years went by, and we grew distant. Every day, life took the best of us, and we struggled to keep up with the insanity of it all. Our own traumas seemed so insignificant compared with the struggles and tragedies we were heartbroken to hear about around the world.

Cries For The Fallen

To the one who rendered me nonexistent - the one with the hateful eyes, and malicious intent. Vindication has always been man’s folly, and you have not been shortchanged in your ambitions to carry out such vicious deeds.
Not one fragment of mercy corroded your ablazed eyes as you held my fragile life by puppet strings, basking in my dangling demise.
I cried out in anguish, tearing at the skin that held you. I screamed hate into your face, spraying poison into your eyes. I wept with torment, twisting in death’s violent dance.
The reaper of the innocent approached me as I collapsed, choking mysel

My Dearly Beloved Fiance

_{When true love finds you, you will know it. Believe me, it is worth the wait when it finds you. Something special about Kyle always reached out to me, but I didn't really realize what it was. We connect deep in the soul, and before long, we had gotten so close, that we shared everything with each other.

He became my best friend, and our friendship only grew stronger as time went on. Now that friendship has grown to love, a love that is so beautiful, I cannot describe it. A love so strong that nothing can shake it or change it. He truly is the love of my life, my rock, my strength, my partner for eternity. He makes me happy, and he completes me in ways beyond imagination.

Unconditional love is endless. It is strong, it is powerful, it is courageous. Unconditional love has no boundaries, nor is it inhibited by dogmas, worthless limitations, or rules.

This is also true of love; it is patient, it is kind, it does not envy, nor boast, nor proud, it is not self-seeking, it is not rude, it is not easily angered, nor does it keep records of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but it delights in the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails, and out of the trinity of faith, hope, and love; the greatest of all, is love.

Love is eternal, and because it is so eternal, it can be stretched. It is limitless, and you can never have too little or too much love, for you can create as much as you need, and from love comes kindness, respect, and admiration, both inside and out. It casts no judgment, no resentment, and it does not fuel from lust, jealousy, greed, and vanity. It grows in sickness and in health, in richer and in poorer, for better and for worst.

I pledge myself, my heart, and my commitment to him alone. I will love Kyle all my life.

Here is some of his work.}

My Meez

_{If you have a meez, and I know you, add me!}

Thank You + A Huge Formal Announcement!

Journal Entry: Sun Jun 28, 2009, 4:27 PM

Watch me Note me My Fiance

Thank You.

I wanted to take this time out to thank everyone for all of the support, especially during this difficult week. My beloved and I lost a dear friend this week and it has been particularly hard on us both. To =th3krimzon1 and to *ILoveKnives, I give personal thanks to during this time, as well as everyone who has offered me and my beloved a comforting word, or a shoulder to cry on.

We both thank you with all of our hearts.

More Thanks.

I wanted to express thanks to all of the support of my works and give thanks to all of the new watches I have received lately. I am very pleased that people still enjoy my work enough to read it.

The last piece written, "Azriel" is very personal, and is dedicated to my beloved Kyle, and also to Jessica, whom we lost this week. I already miss her, and I hope she rests in peace.

The BIG Announcement.

There are times in your life where you feel like nobody understands you or cares to know you, and there are times that often, people give up on love. I was almost like one of those people. When you meet the special person you were meant for, you just know it, and you feel it in your soul.

My Kyle and I have known each other for a while now, and have been dating for a while now as well. He's very dear to me. He's my best friend, and I consider him the love of my life. I never want to leave his side, and it would make me the most happy to spend forever with him. The heart just knows when it's found the right one, and believe me, I have.

Now, like every couple, he and I are faced with obstacles. Like every couple, we have our good and bad days, but we have unconditional love and trust for one another, and unconditional respect for each other as well. He and I have survived many things in this life, since we have been together, and it has made us stronger.

One thing is for certain. Kyle is an irreplaceable person in my life. He is the most dear to me, and he makes me feel alive. He truly is the best thing about me, and it is a true honor to have him in my life.

Kyle and I have made a mutual decision that will affect our lives in a big way, and it is with all of the love and joy in my heart that at this moment, I formally announce our engagement.

We feel we are ready to make such a decision, and we have decided to have a long engagement, as to not rush into it, to take our time, and really plan and perfect our special day. Once we get wedding details planned in the future, we will disclose them to our friends.

As of Sunday, 28 June, 2009, it is official that we are engaged.

Lots of people know both Kyle and myself. These people know how much Kyle means to me, and how much I mean to him. These people know how much our lives have lit up upon meeting each other. He is my world, and I love my Kyle with all of my heart.

It makes me overjoyed to make this announcement, and I wanted to share with you all, friends of =K-D-C and myself this wonderful news.

You are all loved very much by us both. To my beloved: I love you, and it's a true honor to be by your side. I look forward to our future together. You mean the world to me, and no one else can compare to you.

Ayu.

Mood: Happy Tears

_{ABOUT ME

I am Ayu, and around here, I am many things; an art lover, a sincere friend, a helping hand, an activist, and a supporter of many.

DeviantART is my second home, because I love art, in every form almost as much as I love music. My favorite genres of art include macabre and horror, dark, surreal, fantasy, emotional, traditional, psychedelic, fractals, waterscapes, architecture, and literature, so those are the types of art that I look at most.

ABOUT MY WORK

I am known for my literature around here. I write poetry and prose in reference to my experiences, and I focus a lot on the darker side of life, because it was during those hard times that I learned the most lessons, and I can use my experiences to help others struggling now the same way I did then.

Every piece I compose has a positive message to take from it, and if I can help one person, then I have done my job.

I view the world as my easel, the pen as my brush, and the words as my colors. I hope to paint pictures in the minds and hearts of many with my literature for years to come.

ON DEVIANTART

I am known as a helping hand across DeviantART. Whether it be giving feedback to deviations, or the occasional critique, people come to me for encouragement and advice. I am always happy to help someone any way that I can, even if it's just a feature in my journal, donating to or promoting contests and causes, or help with real life situations. Anybody who needs me simply has to note me, and I will do my best to help.

I try to be helpful to people here on dA in other ways. All over my journal and shoutboard are links of interest to various areas of DeviantART. I always try to promote the latest news articles, and the newest contests to keep you in the know around here, and I try to provide as many resources as I have time to find. (I'm a busy girl, you know.) And I enjoy being helpful to others in this way.

I support many people around dA, and as well, many projects, including =TheDeviantStandard, *DailyDeviants, *PrintsForLit,=deviantHELP, *litNEWS, *deviant-ARCADE, and the "Be The Change Challenge." But that's only a few of many things that I support in this community.

MS. CLUB SUPPORTER

When I am not involved with many organizations supporting activism, or running my own chat room and my own personal offsite forum, I have been an administrator for some clubs around here.

=DeathLovers - As you know, I love dark art. It's very beautiful to me, and for fun, I joined the Death Lovers club as an administrator. Over time, I have met some amazing people, and have seen some phenomenal works from incredibly talented artists. I also got the pleasure to work with whom are now some of my closest friends here on dA. I have taken a leave of absence from administration at this time.

~Lyrics-Community - A club about musically inspired art. I've been involved with them literally since the beginning, and while we've taken a bit of a slow period, this club means a lot to me, as I am not only a former administrator, but a Co-Founder as well. I do enjoy being a part of the club very much, and have had some good times there.

*Self-InjuryClub - This club is a support group dedicated to helping people in need, who have self-harmed themselves in one way or the other. They also help those who do not self-harm as well. This club is NOT pro-injury, but in fact, is a kind and loving environment, complete with a special Help Team to to help guide those who harm themselves on the path of recovering and stopping such habits. I am not an administrator there, but I am a member of their Help Team, and anyone who has a trouble in the area of self-harm, please do not hesitate to contact me. I'll do what I can to help you.

WHAT I AM ALL ABOUT

I am about kindness and respect around here, and genuine interest in helping to be a positive influence on this community.

Art can be inspired by our influences, and I firmly believe in artist support as well as appreciation from the artist.

I believe that the power to overcome is greater than the power to inflict, and that there is nothing that one person cannot do, if you believe in yourself.

I love to comment and laugh with people, so don't hesitate to get to know me if you want. I promise I don't bite, much.}
