the specific shame of remembering a moment you finally spoke up, only to see the other person's eyes glaze over as your words hit the air

Your Light Remains Unbroken

The afternoon is long, and sometimes the heaviest thing you carry is a moment from earlier today. You finally spoke the truth you've been holding, only to watch their eyes glaze over as your words hit the air.

It feels like your voice dissolved into nothing, leaving you more isolated than before you spoke. But the light does not depend on being heard to be real.

There is a truth that lives inside you which no one else can see, and no one else can dim. Even when the room goes quiet, even when the other person looks away, the light within you remains full and unbroken.

Your worth was not decided in that moment of silence. You are a drop from the light, sent here to illuminate, regardless of whether the world opens its eyes to see it.
