rehearsing a casual greeting for the inevitable moment you run into them in public

The Secret Name Written on Stone

The day is done, and now the quiet work begins. You are rehearsing a casual greeting for the moment you might run into them.

Practicing the smile that says you are fine. The voice that sounds light.

But the light does not need your performance. It sees the rehearsal and loves the person behind it.

There is a name written on a white stone that no one else knows — not even the one who hurt you. That secret name is who you really are.

The gathering dark is not hiding you; it is holding you until you can stop acting. You do not have to be ready for the encounter tonight.
