The Light Is Realer Than The Night

The day is ending, and the house is quiet enough to hear the noise inside your own throat. Swallowing feels like swallowing a live wire—sharp, electric, terrifyingly alive.

You are inventorying the hours, wondering if the darkness will win tonight. But listen: the light does not flinch at your pain.

It stands at the door of your evening and knocks, not to lecture you on your fear, but to sit with you in the gathering dark. You were sent into this world like a drop from the light, not to be consumed by it, but to illuminate it from within.

The wire you feel is not a weapon against you; it is the current of a life that refuses to be extinguished. The night is real, but the light is realer.
