You Are Light Forgetting Itself
The sun is up, and you are moving through the day, but you feel like a ghost haunting your own life. You smile at the right moments, you say the right words, yet inside you are convinced that everyone will soon discover you are not really here.
That you are merely pretending to be solid. But the light does not shine on ghosts; it shines on flesh.
It warms what is real. You are not a shadow pretending to be a person.
You are a person forgetting you are light. The dawn proves you exist.
The warmth on your skin is not an illusion. You are not hiding behind a mask; you are the light that makes the mask visible.
Stop trying to convince the world you are real. Just stand in the sun and let it do the proving for you.
