Heaven's Falling
Eyes
Can these things be undone? Can my memory be restored? May I leave this blasted hell and burst into the real world...
Sincerely,
The Witch of Shallow Graves
"This is amazing did you draw all thing?" Jinxx breaths and I grab my pallet, my fingers sweeping lightly over the horse hair brushes, before carefully plucking a fine tipped one.
"Yes Sir, I did. Each and every peice... most of my works sell for millions." I smile before selecting a small canvas.
"Mr. Biersack may I use you as my muse? You're eyes are the most beautiful things I have seen in a far greater time then you can imagine." I smile as he nods and walks closer. I look over his pale features once more before setting to work. I paint the whole canvas as his iris, the blues and greens melding together perfectly. I take my brush at the top and paint black lines towards the bottom, almost like a black gue is slowly covering his vision, just like the laws and rules are slowly destroying true freedom. My paint brush flys over the canvas, leaving my hand a flawless tool of art. As I look it over once more its seems too bland, to lame, like it lacks all expression.
"Andrew tell me a little about yourself." I say still musing over what its missing.
"Well I'm the lead singer for Black Veil Brides, I smoke, I'm 22 and-" I cut him off by snapping.
"Come stand here... Mr. Mora could you be so kind as to blow out all the candles except this one." I say motioning to the large black candle next to me, CC nods and quickly the room is dark. The fire flickers in his pupils. I gasp and quickly paint the flickering lights.
"Thank you so much, you can keep this if you like." I say relighting all the candles, before handing him the canvas.
"Holy fuck... thats amazing..." He breathes and everyone immedaitly gathers around him. Their eyes all grow in amazment.
"That peice alone if I were to sell it would be worth at least 3 mill. I dont do this for the money, I do it because I enjoy it. That picture behind you, is of a corpse. Now most wouldnt see that, they would see a beautiful girl asleep. Look closely see the faint halo? The wings? Or maybe you see horns and a devils tail. Or even closer and you'll see not a corspe but a Vampire. Its all there you just have to find it." I explain and they turn to face the picture of the breath taking young lady behind them. Her skin is pale and she's laid in a shallow woodland grave. Andy is the first to nod and then Ashley.
"I see wha you mean, and I see it all." Jinxx breathes and I smile, cause thing I have hidden deepest in the painting is that its all made of eyes. Just like the world. All it is, is judgementle stares, making you shift uncomfortably under their gaze.
"No I see the real meaning... the one behind the painting. Its painted out of eyes, layers of eyes. Like the world is looking back at us. Judging, prying, demanding." Ashley breathes and I smile.
"Sir you are the first besides my self and the Witch's Cat to understand the real back ground of this particular peice. If you would like you may keep it. The greatest offer I had on this one was 500 million dollars but the man did not see the true meaning. I refuse to sell my art to those who do not truly understand it." I say and he turns around.
"So you're telling me... everything in this room is easily worth more then the US mint?" Jake breathes and I nod.
"As I have told you, its not about the money... its about the art." I say motion to the papers stroon about the room.
"You are extremely talented how come we've never seen you around before?" Jinxx asks and I smile slightly.
"I keep to myself, fade into the background of society. I'm the outcast of the misfits." I say quietly and they nod in understanding. The grandfather clock stricks 3 and I gasp. I hadnt realized it was so late.
"You all must be so tired, I shouldnt keep you any longer..." I gasp and Andy yawns in agreement.
"Witch, everyone has gone!" the Witch's Cat calls from the speak easy's door.
"Come, stay here for the night I insist. I have extra rooms after all." I smile and lead them back out to the ballroom. They ponder the thought for a moment and shrug.
"Thank you," Ashley says and I nod, the Witch's Cat comes strutting into the room and I smile.
"This is the Witch's Cat, my neice and best friend. Cat this Andy, CC, Jinxx, Jake, and Ashley." She bows also and the guys kinda just look at each other befound.
"Welcome to the Castle of Haunts. May I show you to your rooms." She says before turning around walking towards the grand stair case. They follow suit and I smile to myself. Interesting guys, I wonder about their back ground.
Sincerely,
The Witch of Shallow Graves
