Let the Sentence Fall
The silence in this room is so heavy it feels like a physical weight, pressing your tongue against the back of your teeth to hold back the sentence that wants to escape. You are afraid that if you let the words out, the night will break, or the pain will become too real to carry.
But there is a light that shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. That light does not need your words to exist.
It does not need your explanation to stay. It is already here, breathing with you in the quiet.
You can let the sentence go. You can let it fall into the hands of the one who knows it before you speak it.
The truth that lives inside you is stronger than the silence you are keeping. It waits for you to stop holding your breath.
The light is not afraid of what you have to say.
