Light Remains Even in Silence

The house is quiet now, and the silence from your friend feels like a wall you cannot climb. You are replaying every word, every pause, convinced that the distance between you has become permanent.

But the light inside you does not depend on their reply to exist. There is light within a person of light, and it lights up the whole world—even this dark room where you are waiting alone.

The silence is heavy, yes. But it is not the final truth about your connection.

You are not defined by the unanswered text or the quiet phone. The light that lives in you was there before this friendship began, and it will remain when the words finally come.

Sleep is not something you earn by fixing this tonight. It is something you receive because you are held, even in the waiting.
