Stop Fixing Your Story
The house is quiet now, and in the silence, you catch yourself mid-sentence, trimming the edges of your story to make the pain sound manageable. You soften the blow for the people listening, as if your raw truth might be too heavy for the dark.
But the light does not need your edited version to stay close. There is a truth that lives inside you and will be with you forever, and it knows the parts you leave out.
You do not have to perform okayness for the night to hold you. The darkness has not overcome the light that knows your real name.
Stop fixing the story. Just let it be.
