"Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it
is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality. But, of
course, only those who have personality and emotions know what it means to want
to escape from these things." ~T. S. Eliot

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you
did, but people will NEVER forget how you make them feel ~ Maya Angelou

I've always been drawn to things that display class, glamour, and beauty

Why the darkness?

Somewhere in the darkness there is a tiny shimmer of light. This light holds nothing but hope for those that find it, for hope is all that it will favour. The light shares no heat and its shadow is small but it will attract because it is light. Hidden just outside of the light’s reach, hidden in the shadow lurk those that we can’t imagine, even when we think of our deepest fears and nightmares, they transcend our imagination because our imagination and nature in general will never be as horrific as those that stay just beyond the light. One day I will find hope and step beyond the shadow and find what my mind is too primitive to comprehend and with hope discover that it is not something to fear but something to embrace.
Amen
