That morning, the sun rose in a way that felt like home — golden, still, and open. The light reminded me of everything I missed, everything that made me. And so I sat, breathed it in, and remembered.

That same pose, the one we each took without thinking. The one that repeated itself through my past. The one I didn’t give much importance to. That’s the one I miss. The one I would pay to have back.

No one in the universe. No one... That sadness made you remember. Remember those days. Those laughs— when she was there with you. The one who made you laugh that laugh. That laugh only she could bring. A laugh now buried, buried in a place I don’t know— because I wasn’t there. I wasn’t feeling. I just moved... Dead inside. Empty. In shock.

Futuro. Samsung Galaxy Note 7 My journey took me to El Túnel de Guajataca, a place rich with history—once part of the national railway system that connected the island during the early 20th century. There, I found this mural. It stopped me in my tracks. The words "Pasado. Futuro." felt like an echo of everything I was processing. What remains of those who shaped the world quietly— forgotten, but never absent.

I wanted to start this journey with sincerity, no filters, no fixes. The golden light is gone now, and the coolness of night has taken its place. But even without the gold, there’s still something worth capturing. So for now, I’ll leave it here—until the light returns.

But here, as the golden hour fades and the sky darkens, it’s the city itself that begins to glow. The warmth of the sun gives way to the cool stillness of night—but somehow, light keeps showing up. In its own way. At its own time.

That afternoon, the golden hour wrapped the facade in warm light, illuminating the coffee shop’s poster and drawing my attention to the beauty in that everyday scene. It was this moment—the glow, the stillness—that compelled me to take the photo.

My friend was walking ahead when a beam of light hit him for just a second. It caught my eye and made me stop. There was something about the contrast, the calm, the way the light landed on him that felt meaningful. Like a small reminder that even in unfamiliar places, light shows up. I lifted my camera without even thinking.
