The Light Has Already Erased The Tape
The house is quiet now, but your mind is loud with the replay. You speak the words again, dissecting every syllable to prove you were selfish, to prove you failed.
The gathering dark loves this kind of inventory; it takes a single moment and stretches it until it covers the whole sky. But listen — the light does not keep a ledger of your stumbles.
It is not tallying your selfishness against your worth. There is a mercy that lives in us and will be with us forever, and it does not vanish because you spoke poorly today.
You are reviewing a tape that the light has already erased. The night is for resting, not for prosecuting yourself.
