The Voice Moved to Your Bones
The morning light hits the window and you realize you can no longer summon the exact timbre of their voice. Panic sets in.
You try to replay the memory, but the recording is faint, distorted by time. The guilt whispers that forgetting is a second loss, a betrayal of the love that remains.
But listen — the light does not require a perfect archive to be present. What you are looking for is not gone; it has simply moved from your ears to your bones.
You are searching for a sound outside yourself when the truth is already humming within. The voice you miss is not a file to be retrieved.
It is the rhythm of your own heart, beating with the love they gave you.
