deviantART thrives on the aspects of giving help to those in need. It is what makes this community unlike any other on the web. We are not just artists, we are advocates, activists, promoters and trailblazers. Above all, we are friends.

We all know of deviants who need help from time to time. Sometimes it is in a monetary fashion- Like donations for causes, paying for a bill here and there or something else.

Other times it is a simple hug, a friendly hello, a newbie who needs a guide or the promotion of an event.
And who doesn't know of someone offering or looking for commissions?
Need advice on your work? A critique perhaps?

That is what Project-Pay-Forward aims to do. Help those in need, however and whenever possible. We all have our talents, and we all have things we would like help with. This project hopes to bring together the two and get things done.

But this is not a one person job. It takes a community effort. So join us, and open your heart.

Break Up Part One:
I look down at my arm dripping blood
I know I know better
But it hurt
The way you acted
When I called you

I could see the cuts that would be there soon
But you didn't you took it calmly
Making it worse
As I walked my nails started to dig
But I kept on walking

You are telling me I'm lying
But I'm telling you the truth
Why would I tell you she misunderstood
I could have just delt with it
Dumped her the end

Instead I called you to tell you
Tell you she thought I was dating her
I told you I was dealing with it
Telling the girl she misunderstood
You started joking around making little jokes

The Tower of Babel
What is the difference between a man and a parasite?
A man builds, a parasite asks "Where is my share?"
A man creates, a parasite says, "What will the neighbors think?"
A man invents, a parasite says, "Watch out, or you might tread on the toes of God..."
—Andrew Ryan, character in: BioShock

Long time ago, when mankind still spoke only one language, there was a place where people from all places the eye could reach until the horizon lived side by side as brothers. This place was called the City of Babel. There was no king or government, but absolute freedom, and though such a freedom could easily corrupt a man's soul, no man oThe Tower of Babel by ~cekario

El Tango That's Tango playing.

This sadness of the soul singing with an own voice, petting my ears rescuing all my negative emotions I learned to love to live. This pain is lovely.

It's destructive and creative, yin and yang,
it's cycling like an engine in my brain,
it's spitting into the ugly face of filthy majority's opinion.
It's a powerful sadness, it's not nostalgia, saudade, weltschmerz, dor or whatever other beautiful word you may call it,
it's made of pure frustration and meant to drive us sufferers above mediocrity.

Yet, what did you, my reflex in the mirror, do?

The One in the Crowd I would see her, standing there, leaning against the wall, just below the bridge, her white earphones plugged in shutting off the din of the city. At first, all I did was catch quick glances and look away, afraid that she would see me staring. A little smile would always play on her lips, as if trying to escape, but hiding just behind the shadows. She seemed oblivious to the huge melee that engulfed her, hordes of people scurrying around like ants. She would patiently wait for the 7:20 Borivali-Churchgate, and board it effortlessly, gliding to her favorite spot on the train, one where she could look out on the city that never slept.

Weight of the world You're crawling on me
sucking up my strength,
like soup,
you can't get enough,
you must have more.

The more you eat from me,
the thinner I get,
the heavier you become,
I start to feel your weight
on top of me.

You break my back,
you break my knees,
but you won't break me.

No matter how much
strength you eat,
I will always have more,
stashed away
from your sticky fingers
from your drooling mouths.

No matter what you do
to me
I will never crumble --
I will take the weight
and carry you through.Weight of the world by `petrova

Forever grateful I remember you with fondness
and light up when I read one of your
comments,

oh how I wish you were near
so we could meet,
laugh and
support each other
without a screen
and an ocean apart,

but I am happy nonetheless
that you walked into my life,
decided to stay
and become my friend.Forever grateful by `petrova

Santa Never Forgets Her eyes shifted like shooting stars, sliding down the artic tails of comets and hopping over the rings of invisible planets. Her breath was a miniature heat-wave as it collided with her small and semi-thawed hands, creating a temporary rift of mild warmth. She huddled closer to the embers of the dying fire; even her toes seemed to be shivering from the cold.

She heard the names as they passed by, whispered through rotten teeth and licked with poisoned tongues. She shivered violently as they continued to walk by her, more vile than the last. With clenched fingers she brought her hands to her face, blowing dripping icicles across her fingSanta Never Forgets by *IrrevocableFate

Chameleon Smiles "I always wanted matching straight jackets," she said, pressing her minuscule fingertips against the bent backs of dandelions and clovers. I only managed to blink back the laughter because even though she smiled lovingly at the sky, her eyes said "sometimes-I-think-I-belong-in-one."

"Don't be ridiculous," I say, leaning back onto the blanket of sun-worn grass.

She pouts with her all ready withered twenty two year old lips, "I'm not being ridiculous."

I smile and close my eyes as her innocence laden voice rambles on about why the sky really turns black--she is adamant that it's because a monster-star swallows up all the colours tChameleon Smiles by *IrrevocableFate

Nadezda Today she found no peace amongst the lilies. They only stood to remind her of sorrow; even the ocean's strongest monsoon could not hope to wash away all the blood spots from them.

"Nadezda?"

"I felt her death."

He stood silent for a moment, the whisper of grief spiraling through the distance between them. Blinking out a hushed apology he knelt beside her, "She always thought of you as a sister."

"There has been too much loss."

She shook the suffering from her eyes but the tears of one thousand years of pain would not be overthrown so easily. The trees remained quiet as time settled into its monotonous rhythm, but they knew theyNadezda by *IrrevocableFate

Job The bell at the top of the door clinked against the soft pressure; the young man looked up from cleaning his round glass. He slid it to his bar maiden, motioning her to go greet their new guest. He wasn’t surprised they declined and waved her away. Most of them did, unless they were perverted old men or…flirtatious women. They were the same anyway, at least, to him.

He shrugged the thought away, turning his attention back to cleaning his dishes.

They sat on a nearby stool, just across from him. “What can I…get you?” he delayed his last couple words, quirking an eyebrow at the cloak that barred his way from recogJob by =Onyx-Twilight
