Scene
With the subconscious preconception that anyone actually wants to read the inside of my mind put into words, here is something I have been thinking about for the past couple of days.
I do enjoy painting and sketching, I feel complete when I am using this creative outlet, but sadly I am not talented enough to capture the emotions in this scene between two people, more specifically two siblings.
Imagine two people. One girl being tall, blonde, well built, and as the world perceives attractiveness, he is attractive, but there is absolutely no depth behind his eyes. Nothing more exists than what the world can see with no effort. The guy being not so evenly proportioned, brunette, with a short haircut that the world may not view as pleasingly as the other. When you look into this guy's eyes, you see a whole other world existing in his mind. He has had time alone on weekends to sit and think about things and form opinions about the great depths of the world.
These two siblings were incredibly close in their childhood, each of them admiring the other for their strengths. As the grew older, they have grown apart, growing more selfish having invested more time in themselves rather than their relationship.
These two have just had a fight that started out with something minute, but turned into the struggle between good and evil, between popularity and intellect. The sister has just said something so carelessly about the brother. She cannot take these words back.
Here is the scene I've had in my mind for a while.
The two stand about 5 yards apart. The background is irrelevant, because the look that is in the brother's eyes is so disturbing that it will destroy the sister's conscience and their relationship forever.
The brother looks his sister square into her blue eyes, with the most hurt, most furious look he has ever held on his face, but it is not the expression that destroys her. It is the look in his eyes, the look that lets the sister knows that he holds the intellectual power to remember and forget things as he pleases, but he will never forget what she said, but he has the power to erase the sister's presence from his life.
He has just removed everything that has to do with this selfish girl out of his mind forever.
The emotions in this scene cannot be captured with a paint brush, but it is just something to think about and remember that we can never take words back.
