in a night abyss
shimmering with white diamonds
hope winks with promise

It was a brilliant one-liner Lauren! It fit perfectly! 😍👍🏼💖
Oh, I know, so perfect! On a door in the hotel that had a window, there was a sign of Jack’s iconic face in that scene, and I had to look away. I wanted to get a good night’s sleep that night! 🙂 🎃💝🤗
Beautiful, Lauren!
