The Dawn Written in Your Bones
The house is quiet now, but your mind is loud with the day's rehearsals. You are replaying every awkward silence, every glance that felt like a slight, tightening your chest until it hurts.
The darkness tries to convince you that these moments define you, that you are nothing but the sum of your stumbles. But the light that lives inside you was there before the first word was spoken and it remains after the last echo fades.
It cannot be dimmed by a clumsy pause or a misunderstood tone. You are not your mistakes.
You are the vessel holding the light that no darkness can overcome. The night is long, but the dawn is already written in your bones.
Drawing from
Gospel of Thomas, Matthew
