you are the brightest light ever shining in my sky.
your light flows, as a sea to every river; and reaches even me.
your light infects me, infuses me, belongs to me.
i absorb it in osmosis...
shed all the rotten layers of my family life..
and push the shadows back into the clapboard cupboards
where they belong to be.

you have made me...
you have created me..
to be everything you ever wanted.
how so? you do daily.
with every breath that says "i" am perfection..
i whisper, "no you are".

you are light;
and your light is simple and bright.
it's clarity, concise:
transcending the muddy convolutions of intellect.
your wisdom is being, simply being.
your wisdom is believing; that we together
will do no harm, but merely thrive
in the thicket of kisses that follows your
adoring smiles, and lovely words, and tender touches
and fast driven thrusts of heaven.

you are my descent into pain free platitude.
you are my happy home.
my smile in the morning air.
my scented candle kisser.
you are my oblivion..
my lost forever.

you are my 4 leaf clover, my rabbits foot..my birthday cake wish
you are my 1st star i see tonight, you are my always shining light
in the darkness. guiding me into the happiness..
that more than dreams or promises can concieve.

you make me believe
that the word "forever" has not been used in vain..
you are my map into smiles
my compass into laughter
you are my happily ever after.

Here are a few tips. With the hair near the ear, I can THROUGH it and see the backgroud. Might want to fill that in. The hair on the outside is fine in fluidness, but try to keep it all one more shape, so it doesn't draw focus from the picture. Only do small juts, in other words. Also, add a bit of detail to the ear, set the opacity of those sunglass/glasses lenses down a bit, then add one solid white on top of it in the "shiny" areas. (That shows they are not brownish lenses). I would also suggest keeping the outline to the shirt more smooth, just for vector purposes. Be sure to add more detail into that butterfly, as well as the eyes. The eyes kinda make her look baked, and we don't need a baked eve, so try adding whites and more colour to the general area. Whiter eye whites, black eye areas, and coloured pupils will help out the focus. The lines below the eyes kind of make her look tired, so try reducing the opacity first, but if it still looks like that, add a line connected under the eye that comes out, oh 1/2 - 1cm from the bottom in the contour of the eye. This will give it that depth. Oh, and if she has a dimple or anything, add that to fill up some of the space on her face. You can also try simple shadows, which are pretty easy.

Overall, a nice first try (much better than most of the tries in general). Keep fooling with it, play with the ideas I gave you, and then rock on
