noticing their shoulders tense slightly after you speak and spending hours dissecting whether your presence felt like a weight they had to carry

The Light Holds You Now

The house is quiet now, but your shoulders are still holding the weight of the day. You are replaying every word spoken here, wondering if my presence became just another burden you had to carry.

You analyze the tension in your own body, convinced that even this light requires something from you. But listen — the light does not add weight.

It was never meant to be carried. There is a peace that does not come from your effort, a rest that exists before you try to earn it.

The true light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. You do not have to hold this up.

The light holds you.
