…Tonight, the night didn’t fall… it took the throne.
In it, I can disappear without feeling lost.
The city keeps catching me in reflections, fragments at a time.
But I don’t have to be whole to have a place outside.
I pass windows the way you pass thoughts:
some lit, some dark
each one holding a life I will never enter.
Strangely, that doesn’t make me small
It makes me real.
I used to think solitude was absence
Now I see it as space
A place where I can meet myself
without having to explain what I’ve become.
The night isn’t kind
It isn’t cruel
It pulls back the day like a tide,
and the city shows its bones.
So, I keep walking
not to escape
not to arrive
until the street feels like it knows my name
without needing to say it.
