Love Runs Before You Speak
The screen glows in the gray of dawn, a tiny raft in a quiet room. You typed the question, then watched your own fingers erase it, letter by letter, until the light returned to blank.
That silence is not an answer; it is simply the space before the sun fully rises. There is a father who saw his son while he was still far off, covered in the dust of a long road, and ran to meet him before a single word could be spoken.
The love was already there, moving faster than your apology or your doubt. You do not need to send the message to be held.
The light that woke up with you this morning knows your name better than you know your own fear.
