The Light Is Wide Awake With You
The screen lights up your face in the dark, and suddenly every silence feels like a verdict. You are scanning for proof that you are the joke, convinced the world is laughing where you cannot see it.
But the darkness has not overcome the light that lives inside you. That light does not need a notification to know you are held.
It was there before the phone woke up. It is there while you wait for the morning.
You are not defined by what people say when you aren't looking. You are defined by the truth that knows your name even now.
The world may be asleep, but the light is wide awake with you.
