The Truth Stood in the Room
The day is finally quiet, and now the lie plays on a loop in your mind. You can hear the exact tone, see the way their eyes paused, and you are certain they saw right through the mask you wore.
But there is a light that does not blink when you stumble. It does not turn away when the performance fails.
It simply waits for you to stop running. The truth was already standing in the room with you, even while you spoke the falsehood.
You are not defined by the moment you slipped. You are held by the one who knows the whole story and stays anyway.
