typing out a long message to them in the notes app and then deleting it because sending it would admit you still care

The Light Sees Your Buried Draft

The cursor blinks in the notes app, a silent witness to the words you typed and then erased. You deleted the message not because it wasn't true, but because sending it would admit you still care.

That admission feels like surrender. But listen — the light does not demand you send the text to know your heart.

It already sees the draft you buried. Neither do you have to perform indifference to be safe.

The love you are trying to hide is already known, already held, and already forgiven. You can put the phone down now.

The silence between you and them is not where the light lives; it lives in the honesty you just tried to delete.

John 8:10-11, Gospel of Thomas 70
