replaying the exact tone of your voice when you said the hard thing, convinced that the tremor in your voice was the moment they decided you were too broken to keep

The Light Gets In Through The Crack

The house is quiet now, but your mind is replaying the exact second your voice cracked. You are convinced that the tremor was the moment they decided you were too broken to keep.

That the shake in your throat was the sound of a door closing forever. But listen — the darkness has not overcome the light, even when your voice fails you.

The One who knows every hair on your head hears the truth beneath the tremor. He does not love the steady voice more than the shaking one.

He runs toward the sound of your breaking, not away from it. The crack in your voice is not the end of the story; it is the place where the light gets in.
