Just the name.

Don't make me say the name. I could go my whole life without ever hearing her name again.

its okay. that's why we're all here. it's like a mini-intervention

This thread is wonderful. It's like wandering through a wide and peaceful cemetery of lost loves. I'll bury mine under that walnut tree.

I agree. I wish I could carve all the names here on a fresh giant oak tree and come back to it when it's withered and decaying, and seeing these names on the old dark chipping bark would only be too fitting to where these names belong.

reply

Heh, my alternate image was with the names written on a crumbling wall . I love the tree.
It's also nice to spot the different attitudes - neutral or even mildly affectionate, when the wound is old and sealed. Angry and pained, when the wound is fresh. Different tombstones, or carvings in the tree, some new with the name clear and the edge sharply cut and ready to bleed whomever touches it, some old and dull, name barely visible, covered in grass and ants, mostly just part of the earth we're walking.

That'd be cool. I thought about that also. Just a giant cemetery with only a name on them. I remember making this thread some years back. I didn't think it'd get this popular. Even my ex saw it haha. I made this shortly after a really messy breakup. 2 years of my life down the drain. And I'll admit, this thread is pretty impressive.

reply

Thankyou for making this thread, it has been one of the more interesting threads for this particular film.

Thanks!

Yes an excellent thread.

I put the my thoughts and feelings about one particular lady into a painting of a woman with 8 arms each holding a different mask representing each of her moods. But I bear her no ill will, thank God she decided to break my heart.
