The Crack Where The Light Gets Out
The question lands softly in the middle of your morning: 'How are you really?' And for a second, the mask you've been wearing all day feels like it might shatter. You hear your own voice crack, betraying the performance you thought was flawless.
But that crack is not a failure — it is the place where the light gets out. The truth that lives inside you was never meant to be hidden behind a smile or a rehearsed answer.
Whatever is concealed is meant to be brought out into the open. The light does not need your perfection to shine; it needs your honesty.
It waits behind the performance, ready to meet you in the trembling.
