The Dawn Is Holding You Now
The sun is up, but the space beside you feels heavy with a hand that isn't there. You rolled over expecting a touch that the morning light cannot replace.
That ache is real. But listen — the rising sun has come to shine on those living in darkness, not to scold them for still feeling the night.
The light is not asking you to forget the weight. It is asking you to notice that you are still here to feel it.
You made it through. The warmth you are missing did not vanish; it has simply changed shape, becoming the very air you breathe right now.
You are not alone in this empty space; the dawn is holding you.
