closer now

And I gave you my soul
And every ounce of control
I gave you my skin
And my original sin
I gave you my pride and my side
Oh my pride
~Melissa Etheridge

Another self-portrait. I can't help it. Nothing else is my apartment is interesting to take photographs of. Plus, I've always been a little vain. When I was eight-years-old, my family went on vacation and we stayed in a hotel where one of the walls was entirely made up of mirrors. I spent all the time in front of it, dancing, singing, and looking at myself. From that day forth, my dad always sang, "You're So Vain," by Carly Simon anytime I went near a mirror. What can I say? He's right.
