Love Projecting Presence Into Empty Space

The sun is up. The light is spilling across the floorboards, proving that the night did not win.

But for you, the morning brings a specific kind of silence. You heard that laugh yesterday—the one that used to make you turn and nudge an empty sleeve.

And for a split second, your body moved before your mind could catch up. You reached for air.

You spoke to a ghost. Then the realization hit: no one is there.

The space beside you is just space. It feels like a fresh wound, doesn't it?

To wake up and remember all over again. But listen.

The fact that you turned means the love is still alive. The light inside you is so bright, so real, that it projects their presence onto the empty room.

You are not crazy. You are full of a love that has nowhere to go yet.

The dawn is not asking you to forget. It is asking you to carry this weight into the day without collapsing under it.

The light is here, holding the space where they used to sit.
