There's something about the darkness, about that quiet space between thoughts, that feels like a gateway. It feels like a time capsule, a moment to reflect and perhaps even dream. It's almost as if we're all trying to make sense of the universe, one sleepless night at a time. The night is a canvas, and we're the artists, painting our own stories in the darkness.
