Fall was the best season ever,

It was a comfort evening that day—

The autumn have already started when the cool breeze -—

-flows the falling leaves- trembling went through..

Once I walked down on the trail- I can feel the chilling air by the cool breeze.

Suddenly—-

Something has haunting me through the woods-

The light glows and flickered— behind me—- Haunted.

There was a lantern— came out of no where.

The lantern was on the tree stump, covered with leaves like a fall display that I’ve had seen at the store.

Then, Inside the lantern—-the light just flickering from a candle -

It glows—

‘It give me the chills…

It has been glowing once the sky has began to dark—

I don’t know why?

what does this mean?

It turns out that the light is giving me the message—

‘message? Wait?

the flickered light from the lantern has been telling me —

‘ I am enough’.
