What started off so beautiful as the sunset
quickly turned so dark, and I couldn’t stop myself from walking right into the quicksand.
Soon it was dragging me down.
How did I get so far away from that beauty I once got so blinded by.
On a journey all on my own, I can’t let the darkness slip in through the
cracks of my life anymore.
So beauty when your ready to come back I will be waiting with my lights on.

I thought this was one of my own photographs at first – I love this kind of contrast of light and dark. I pray that beauty comes back to you soon Deirdre, and stays with you for a good long time.
Aww, Thank you!
