Tears for the Earth, tears for the world we live in

Tears, for the Earth, tears for the world we live in, crying 😢 for our world that is suffering and being aware of the global problems, oil on canvas painting.
Sappho and one of her muses, in the sad moment when the girl had to leave against her will, acrylics on canvas painting.
The poem below has inspired me
I have had not one word from her
Frankly I wish I were dead. When she left, she wept a great deal; she said to me, ``This parting must be endured, Sappho. I go unwillingly.''
I said, ``Go, and be happy but remember (you know well) whom you leave shackled by love
``If you forget me, think of our gifts to Aphrodite and all the loveliness that we shared
``all the violet tiaras, braided rosebuds, dill and crocus twined around your young neck
``myrrh poured on your head and on soft mats girls with all that they most wished for beside them
``while no voices chanted choruses without ours, no woodlot bloomed in spring without song...''
In the warm candle light she is loved by the one she has always been waiting for, covered with kisses, feeling the weight and the warmth of her lover's body on top of her, pressing against her body. She is so young, smooth and delicate, opening like a flower for her love. Her body is shaking and trembling under her lover's sweet domination. Their bodies fusion getting closer and closer to each other, skin on skin, soul on soul. The emotion is so deep, growing deeper and deeper as they are getting closer and closer, eliminating any distance between them, breaking the bareers until they become one, reaching the point of maximum closeness and intimacy.
I've made this starting from a pencil drawing, using Photoshop to turn the black and white drawing into a color image, life I did with the drawings in the video below
