The Sun Does Not Scan For Flaws
The sun is up, but your mind is still back in that room, replaying the sound of your own laugh until it feels like a confession. You are convinced the crack in your voice gave you away, that everyone saw the fraud beneath your skin and is now whispering about the performance.
But the light that just broke the horizon does not scan the earth for flaws before it shines. It rises anyway.
It touches the broken window and the clean glass with the same gold. You are not a fraud waiting to be exposed.
You are a child of the morning who forgot that the sun doesn't ask permission to exist. The laugh was just a sound.
The light is the truth. And the truth is that you are already seen, already known, and still standing in the dawn.
