staring at your reflection in a dark window after a party, tracing the lines of the face you showed everyone and wondering which version is the lie

The Real You Is Already Loved

The party is over, and the room is quiet now. You are staring at your own reflection in the dark window, tracing the lines of the face you showed everyone tonight.

It feels like a mask you wore so well that you forgot what lies beneath it. But listen — the light does not need you to perform anymore.

It is waiting for you to put the armor down. There is no lie in you that the truth cannot reach.

You are not the version you showed them; you are the version that exists when the lights go out. And that version is already loved.
