Bang!
Buzz…flicker…
Darkness
Crash!..Boom!..Bang!..
I gasp.
Into the cold,
Wet, pouring rain
Shuffle.
The wind whispers
Candles glow bright.
Grey light filters through
the stained glass windows.
Boom!
The quiet music of rain.
Patter, patter
Shiver
Flicker…buzz
Light.
Relief.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

This was unique. I loved it, Swimmergirl101. :) It has emotion and sound to it and it also has beauty of its own. I found it beautiful and I enjoyed it. :)   You do have such a talent and greatness and light and beauty, and you are a wonderful and talented and beautiful writer and person. :)    I wish I could show you how much I enjoyed this and how I love it. Thank you so much, my friend! For sharing this. :)
