Lightblub Moment

Wandering aimlessly, through the dark
power was shut down once you left

paid the balance in full, plus arrears

 forgotten, you don't always need service
 for lightbulb voltage moments

This is very interesting. I had to read through it about three times before I fully grasped the larger metaphor at work, and then like a "lightbulb" it happened in my head...I knew what you were talking about and I felt it all at once. There is darkness, sometimes, no matter what we do or how many lights we turn on, candles we light, etc., but then again, out of the darkness there always comes light eventually, for the day always dawns. Nice wordplay and ideas here.

Thank you Sarah, glad you got my lightbulb moment.

Excellent metaphor in this piece! The darkness of a failed relationship; the dawning realization that its for the best... Well penned, R&B!

What I get from this write is that you mean to tell us that awakening or seeing the light can happen without light bulb voltage moments...Well penned...:)

[rhythm&blues]

Yes, those were my thoughts Sami, thanks :)

Ah. The energy companies rule the world. Like when you say someone's a low watt bulb or I was shocked. They have so much influence they're part of the lexicon.
