When The Lights Go Out.. x

It's a bitter sweet moment..

When the lights go out..

Late at night.. when everyone has gone to sleep..
As you're lying there in bed, looking up into the nothingness..

Suddenly the world is plunged into darkness..
And the overbearing shadows creep over the world that was once filled with colour and light..

A twinge of fear over the emptiness.. the darkness.. the unknown..
And childhood fears of the monsters in the night edge closer..

But then..
Your eyes begin to adjust..

And out of the blackness comes a glimmer of hope..
As the stars begin to break through the ominous sheet that once hung over the bed.. glowing.. colourful..
And the once bleak moment turns beautiful..

The stars shine.. and the darkness begins to fade..

Everything comes into focus..
And once again.. you feel alright with the world..
Then you drift off to sleep.. knowing those stars are still there.. watching over you x

Magical.
