retaining solar power

dear darkness to follow diary,

if we only had about an hour of daylight left, then it would be pitch dark a few more hours after that. when i go to bed and it is dark outside and i wake up and it is dark outside, and stays dark outside, that is when i know i have slept like a fucking songbird. i love the darkness. there is a quietness and comfort there that stabilizes my soul. it is within the darkness that i can be anything i want to be and go anywhere i want to go. the darkness guides me into the places i will not go in the light. i hate sunscreen anyway.
