The Dawn Arrives Before You Are Ready
The screen lights up. A name.
And before you even read the words, your chest tightens—a reflex built from old hurts and unfinished conversations. You brace for the blow.
You wait for the weight to drop. But notice this: the light has already reached you, before the message is opened.
The dawn does not ask permission to break; it simply arrives, filling the room whether you are ready or not. Your fear says the day will be hard.
The light says the day is already held. You do not have to carry the weight of the unknown before breakfast.
The sun is up. The air is clear.
Breathe.
