			<em>(For those curious about such things)</em>

			The initial concept for this piece started when I randomly decided I should probably write <em>something</em> called "The Light in the Window". It was a title that just came to me one morning. I made a note of it. A lot of my inspiration is from things that just come to me even though I have no idea where they come from. If they seem good, I write them down. The window in the title wasn't necessarily going to be literal but, whether literal or not, I wanted it to be an emotional beacon – a source of happiness or relief – possibly something to cling to in times of strife. It could even be a metaphor for [[Eurynomile\|Eerie]] (isn't everything?). Regardless of meaning, I had a title that I strongly believed would work... for <em>something</em>.

In the darkness you will grope. I'm ne'er lost and alone in the darkness. While the beacon from your window shines. Giving me a sense of calmness. Because its glow is so divine. There's a light on in the window, Whene'er I pass by. Your warmth shines from the window, The window in your eyes."

==Windows==

The edge of the night can cut so deeply,
But the light in the window gives me hope.
The edge of the night won't kill you cleanly.
In the darkness you will grope.

I'm ne'er lost and alone in the darkness.
While the beacon from your window shines.
Giving me a sense of calmness.
Because its glow is so divine.

There's a light on in the window,
Whene'er I pass by.
Your warmth shines from the window,
The window in your eyes.
