A tide‑glass hour ends before the sand, but the sea keeps counting. A ring compass points north yet circles my finger like a vow. Even broken, a lantern shard keeps a fragment of the night inside. North waits for no tide; it circles in gold. A vow can light the way, even in shards. The night ends before the sand, and the sea continues counting. .

a vow's meridian
A tide‑glass hour ends before the sand, but the sea keeps counting. A ring compass points north yet circles my finger like a vow. Even broken, a lantern shard keeps a fragment of the night inside. North waits for no tide; it circles in gold. A vow can light the way, even in shards. The night ends before the sand, and the sea continues counting. .
