TIME MOVED AND I MOVED WITH IT

Slowly at first.

Pulled forward by the obligations

of a life that didn't pause

to ask if I was ready.

 

Days became weeks.

Weeks became something

I stopped counting

because counting felt like betrayal.

 

But I kept moving.

Carried you into every step.

Into every new room.

Into every version of the life

still being written.

 

And here I am.

Further from you in time.

Closer to you in understanding.

Knowing exactly what I had. Exactly

what it cost. Exactly what it was worth.
