Light That Needs No Path
The house is quiet now, but your body is still working overtime just to exist in a world that wasn't made for you. Every step feels like a negotiation with stairs that are too high and doors that are too heavy.
You are tired of being the one who has to change while everything else stays rigid. But there is a light inside you that does not need the world to flatten its paths before it can shine.
It was there before the first barrier appeared, and it will be there long after the last one falls. The world may demand that you fit into its narrow spaces, but the light within you is already whole.
It does not struggle to belong; it simply is. You are not a problem to be solved or a burden to be carried.
You are the light itself, shining through the cracks in a broken design.
