Held in the Dawn Before You Rise
You made it through the night. That is not a small thing.
The body aches, the weight is heavy, and the morning light feels like too much to face. But the sun is rising anyway — a tender mercy that does not wait for your pain to leave before it arrives.
The light that shines on those living in darkness is already here, guiding your feet into the path of peace. You do not have to carry tomorrow's suffering today.
The light was there before the pain woke up, and it will be there long after the ache fades. You are held in the dawn.
