It seems like when everything is going well I have a need to seek the dark. It doesn't come from anything outside; it begins and ends with me. When you feel undeserving, that beautiful things are not for you, it's easier to stay where pain is. It's comfortable and familiar. This piece is about fighting that battle, to tear open the old wounds and allow in the light. 

Yup. Still fighting.
