What actually feels true about you right now?

Tired in a way sleep couldn't reach. Still showing up anyway.

What stayed consistent — in you, not your situation?

Stubbornness, mostly. A refusal to disappear into the noise.

What quietly stopped fitting — without you having to decide?

The need to explain myself before anyone had even asked.

What's here now that wasn't three months ago?

A handful of evenings where I let myself do absolutely nothing.
