Twenty-four

"You're aura's lighter lately." My hippie co-worker said to me one day. I ignored her because what she said was so demeaning and it broke my heart. I AM DARK. Because apparently there was subtle shift in my 'aura' lately, I was blackmailed into going with them in a night club. Night clubs are everything I despise in my life. Bright lights, too many people, loud music and alcohol. But there was something I liked in there. Because there he was, my beautiful painting of darkness, in the contrast of the striking blue light.
