THE UNRECOGNISED ANGEL (Anthropomorphic Fiction)
<p>Night does not fall on the Street Lights Kingdom by accident, it arrives like a confession whispered to those who have learned to wait.</p><p>Street light Cyrus stood tall at the bend of a quiet road his metal skin dull under the sun forgotten by passing faces brushed by dust mocked by birds and ignored by hurried footsteps. During the day people never looked up they complained about heat cursed the poles for blocking signs leaned on him without care and called him useless because he offered no shade no beauty no voice.</p><p>Across the street stood Streetlight Tobi slimmer newer quieter watching the same world pretend they did not exist. In daylight she felt irrelevant a standing object with no applause no gratitude only silence. Children played around her without noticing elders passed without greeting and drivers never slowed for her presence. The day stripped them of purpose and left them standing with patience as their only strength.</p><p>But night knew their names.</p><p>When the sun sank and fear grew legs people searched for them with demonstrate eyes. Footsteps hurried back into their glow lovers slowed their walks beneath them prayers rose when their light appeared. When a bulb flickered curses followed mouths that ignored them by day now begged for brightness by night. When darkness swallowed a street and a light failed anger filled the air because people suddenly remembered how much they needed what they once called nothing.</p><p>Street light Cyrus learned early that failure was not an ending. He had gone dark once and heard the disappointment in the street. Instead of breaking he decided that every return to light would be his motivation. He whispered to the night that past mistakes belong behind the switch not ahead of the glow.</p><p>Streetlight Tobi believed deeply that imagination was a seed. Every night before lighting up she imagined a brighter future where her glow would reach further than fear. And every night reality obeyed as her light stretched and wrapped itself around trembling shadows.</p><p>They fell in love slowly not with touch but with shared purpose. Their beams met on the road and stayed there holding each other steady. When one flickered the other burned stronger. When silence grew heavy they spoke through light promising to remain honest even when unseen.</p><p>Cyrus admired how Tobi forgave the day that ignored her. Tobi loved how Cyrus never resented the people who only noticed him when they were afraid. Together they understood that life was never about those who praised them in daylight but about those who trusted them to stand guard when backs were turned and roads were lonely.</p><p>They learned that failure could be fuel that the past had no power over a switched on heart and that love did not need applause to exist. In the Street Lights Kingdom they stood glowing proof that what the world calls irrelevant can become essential and that true love shines brightest when no one is watching but everyone is safe.</p>
