I feel like this is a portrait of me. I have the same moon face, and I often feel like I'm floating in darkness, quietly powerful, when I am most at peace with myself. Beautiful when there is no one there to observe, criticize, evaluate. Just something that exists and glows, whether anyone notices or not.
