Been thinking of a next tattoo, and I have a vague idea.
I kind of want to get a tattoo of a raven bound in chains, holding an hourglass in its talons.
Raven because I simply like them and think they're cool, but deeper meaning being a reflection of myself. Ravens traditionally depict 'darkness', and I feel like a lot of my tastes (be it music, film, art, whatever) tends to gravitate towards darker kind of subjects, but in my everyday life, I tend to hide those things (hence the chains) in order to appear "normal" to appease everybody. Hourglass is more of a reminder to myself that I don't have forever, and that I need to stop hiding my true self from people.
