When the Darkness Comes Quietly
When the shadows press against my chest,
and my breath feels borrowed,
I remind myself:
I have been here before
and still, I rose.
Anxiety whispers,
depression lingers,
but neither has ever stolen
the quiet flame inside me.
I am not the storm,
I am the girl who survives it.
I am not the silence,
I am the breath that breaks it.
Even here, even now,
when the night feels endless,
I am still here,
still breathing,
still held by God.
And that is enough.
