A Candle in the Dark Room

A dense forest and a house in the middle of the woods.

A bucolic and picturesque house.

Inside the house, stillness and darkness, a profound darkness.

Suddenly, shadows gain strength amidst the darkness; they were the shadows cast by the candle on the table in the room.

Had someone lit it? Maybe it lit itself...

In any case, the faint light flickered quietly and silently as the shadows danced joyfully in that dance of darkness and light.

Darkness and light, light and darkness, so different and yet so inseparable.
