The sky is beautiful this night... The sparkling iridescent lights flickering across seemingly endless heavens... The serene landscape where the firmament and earth become wed as one singular force... Turning to the storm that accompanies me wherever I journey, I let out a sigh... Flashes of lightning encase the promise land with unknowing fear and insecurity... Is this just another day...? Just another life...? Just another unjustifiable reaction to the unrevealed temptations that serve as a warning unto me...? Just another day...? Ahhh yes, the rain starts once more... And the painting of my life begins to blur into indecisive memories and inconclusive discoveries... The smeared pigments upon my canvas take on new forms... Ones of disheartening beauty and seduction... The embers of the fire crackle in the frigid rain as they slowly fade into nothingness... The sky is beautiful this night... As it always shall be...
