watching your own phone screen go dark after you finally stop texting first

The Light Rises Without Your Reply

The screen went dark a moment ago, and the silence it left behind feels heavier than the night itself. You stopped texting first, and now the quiet is rushing in to fill the space where your hope used to be.

But look out the window—the sun is already climbing, indifferent to whether that message was sent or received. The light does not wait for a reply to break the dawn.

It rises simply because it is its nature to shine. You are not defined by the conversation that ended, but by the morning that has already begun.

The day is here, whether you feel ready for it or not.
