He is mine. He can't leave me.

He is mine. He can't leave me.

Obsession, jealousy and possessiveness, are these the actions of true love?

She might start off as loving and caring to someone they have a strong affection for until their romantic love, admiration, and devotion becomes feisty and mentally destructive in nature. Her love towards that special someone will turn to over-protectiveness, violence, and brutality. The lady licking the skeleton's eyes is a fetish she has to mark him so that no one else can have him and he will be hers forever and ever. He who fell in love with this lady who he thought would be a happy relationship can be seen with only his skeleton and organs left. The one he thought he loved ended up sucking the life force out of him through this toxic relationship and his humanity is slowly fading away as he is on the verge of death.

The lady's hair is red in colour which shows dominance and power towards someone else. The green eyes show jealousy and obsession. The lady licking the skeleton's eyes has this expression of pleasure and lust where her eyes are mesmerised towards the skeleton and has a blush on her cheeks. The lipstick spread on her cheeks shows the violent and slightly unbalanced mentality she has. The tattoo on her is a Hannya Irezumi which is a Japanese demon tattoo that symbolizes a lady who is filled with jealousy and obsession. The skeleton with organs shows that a man who once was in a relationship with this lady started dying off, where skeletons normally signify death The centipedes inside and outside the skeleton represent the toxic relationship eating him away slowly. The purple wisteria flowers on the right might look pretty but it is actually very poisonous to animals which perfectly represents our subject who is pretty on the outside but toxic on the inside. The overgrown grass, butterflies and white smoke are to cover up this ugly act that the lady has committed towards her lover.
