The Light That Stumbles Never Goes Out
The house is silent, but your mind is loud with the echo of a single joke you made hours ago. You replay the moment, feeling a physical wave of shame, convinced you revealed too much of the real you.
In this deepest hour, the darkness tries to convince you that your slip was a disaster. But the light that lives inside you is not fragile.
It was there before the joke, and it is there now, untouched by your awkwardness. There is a name written on a white stone, known only to the one who receives it—a secret identity the world cannot see and your shame cannot erase.
You are not the stumble. You are the light that stumbles sometimes, yet never goes out.
