"Cain Having Killed His Brother Abel" by Richie Carter

Watercolor, 11x7, $800

You showed me just how much grief I’ve had inside, how much lack of self love and forgiveness rested on these shoulders. You showed me just how much loneliness had built up over the years. You showed me just how much abandonment I’ve carried all these years. The amount of depression and apathy that I’ve been stowing seemed endless. And I am learning that my greatest sorrows never came from you. You showed me how broken this heart has already been.  My greatest joy and love also never came from you. They’ve been within the entire time. Thank you for showing me.
