Slow Dancing In The Dark

This photograph was inspired by a song called Slow Dancing in The Dark by Joji. When he sang the part, "when I'm around slow dancing in the dark. Don't follow me, you'll end up in my arms", it really hits me. It gave me the feeling like when you see me out there lost, don’t come following me, cause you’ll be just as lost as me. And if you don’t know what you want and that person doesn’t know what they want either, then they’ll end up with each and it’ll just be messed up.
