The small light going off... I just wanted one person to notice the dark around him before he had to cry that hard.

Thank you Asuka. ❤️

It was so long ago that I don't know what I was thinking when I made it. That keeps it kind of interesting to me, too.

It’s so interesting looking at our past penmanship … this was a holy relic of emotion 👏🏼 the light always returns, eventually, even if we don’t always see it

Completely agree Miles! It makes me wish I had more pieces of the past.

Even just seeing thr growth is beautiful.

Thank you. ❤️

Yeah, that's how life is to almost everyone. You try to have hope, and desperation always comes to you.

True! It's a fragile thing. Yet we can only strive to make the best of what we have. ❤️

Whither went he? Who knows?

We only know that he sank.

A star went out in the desolate void,

And lone was the void.
