And then there was light.
The light of a supernova as it explodes with brilliant color and violent fury. It's remnants will disrupt the still of the cosmos and cause the creation of new, shimmering stars and young planets.
The light of a fire that warms the feet and hands of a circle of campers as they laugh and dance into the heart of the night. Troubles and worries are long forgotten.
The light of the sun that beats down on a sunflower, blooming on the side of the road. Its golden petals are outstretched to receive the world, a beautiful display for anyone who passes by.
The light of a lamp that illuminates a bedroom with two girls whose lips pass hushed whispers to each other. The secrets of their souls stain the air with embarrassment and grief.
The light of the kitchen that glints off the tears of a young boy whose ears hear nothing but screaming. His heart shatters like glass as he watches his parents fight again.
The light of a streetlamp that cascades an orange glow onto everything below it. Leaves pass gently through the beam, leaving a glimpse of fall in their wake.
The light of the stars that sparkle above the earth and seas in unmatched glory. They navigate mighty ships to port and lost dreamers back to hope.
The light of a computer screen that highlights the face of a teenage girl as her fingers clack on a keyboard. Her heart is poured out to the world as her fingers leave a trail of words across the screen.
