You Are Already Seen Beneath The Mask

The sun is up, and you are already tired from pretending you know how to be a person. You watch the world moving with such certainty, while you feel like a child playing dress-up in clothes that don't fit.

But listen — the kingdom you think everyone else has found? It is not a secret they kept from you.

It is inside you right now, hidden in plain sight. You are looking for a destination when you are already standing in the place.

The light does not require you to have the answers before it loves you. It saw you before you even woke up.

Nathanael asked how he was known, and the answer was simply: I saw you. Not your performance.

Not your mask. You.

The fraud you fear you are is just a story you tell yourself while the truth sits quietly beneath it, waiting for you to stop running. You don't have to figure it out to belong here.

You just have to be here.
