The Light Is Heavier Than The Dark
The day is ending, and the noise you used to outrun the memory is finally fading. You know the moment your eyelids touch, the thing you've been running from all day will be waiting in the dark.
It feels like a trap. But listen — the darkness has not overcome the light.
It never has. The memory is heavy, yes, but the light inside you is heavier.
It was there before the pain started, and it will be there when you wake up. You do not have to fight the memory to find peace.
You just have to remember that the light is already in the room, sitting beside you in the gathering dark, waiting for you to rest.
