When the day turns dark, and the city lights turn on, it all seems like a fairy tale to me, where a young prince runs on a quest to awaken all the fireflies to battle against the darkness of the night. I feel like I can read the stories in the nocturnal cityscapes where my subconsciousness and fantasies get connected with reality.
