Phaino

re-reading a sent message a hundred times, convinced the recipient is silently judging your inadequacy based on a missing period

The Light Beyond Your Words

When You're Grieving

The screen glows in the gathering dark, and you are still reading the same sentence you sent hours ago. You are searching for the missing period, convinced it is proof that you are careless, that you are too much or not enough.

But the silence on the other end is not a courtroom, and no one is tallying your errors in the dark. The light that lives inside you does not speak in perfect grammar or flawless punctuation.

It simply shines. And that light was already in the words before you sent them, and it remains whether the reply comes or not.

You are known far beyond what a typed message can hold.
