Twilight zone. Twilight saga.... Twilight.

I wish things would quit ruining the word "twilight." It's such a beautiful word.

Over the last couple of years I've started noticing something that, at first, only seemed like a coincidence. I'm not sure what it is now. Maybe it's still just a coincidence. Maybe it's something more. Maybe it's nothing. I often go walking around or driving in the dark. There's never really a set time or location. I just go... whenever I feel like it. It's been like that all the places that I've lived, ever since high school. And every time that I've gone walking in the dark, all the times I can remember, streetlights have turned off above me. Not around me. Not like I see them flicker in the distance.... No... when I'm directly below them, they just... turn off. And it's not all of them. It's usually just one, maybe two. I think it happens when I'm in my car, too. I know that it does sometimes, and others... it's just a sense that I get. I can just tell.

Like I said, maybe it's all in my head. Maybe that happens to people all the time, just like me. But there's always something so surreal about it, something so eerie, yet wonderful.
