The Crack Where Light Breaks Through
The house is quiet now, but your mind is replaying the exact second your voice cracked. You are wondering if they saw the desperation behind your eyes, if the mask slipped enough for them to know you were drowning.
Tonight, the memory feels like a verdict. But the light does not see a failure in that moment; it sees the place where the truth finally broke through the performance.
There is light within a person of light, and it lights up the whole world. That crack was not the end of you; it was the light refusing to stay hidden any longer.
You came from the light, and the light does not shame you for showing its edges.
