Story
A contrasting collection of light and dark, love and heartache, loss and gain, peace and war, hope and despair. Don't fear the darkness, there are always the guiding words of the poetic outlaw to shine a light and find us. Even when shadows are closing, and imposing thoughts are chasing. We find a safe space, to keep fear at bay until the brightness of a new day.
