I chose this pose because this seems like a position someone would do while crying. I know that if you get bullied a lot you sometimes feel like crying. I made the person darker and the background a little lighter in comparison to show that the person is upset and is down in the dumps. It also shows that this person is in the dark like how it says in the poem.
I made it that I was still in the dark and Cecilia is light and that she is that hand to pull me out of the darkness. She is being kind and understanding. The pose was that she was helping me up. I tried to make this picture connected to the other picture,too.
