Pain doesn’t knock.

It just shows up,

Drops its bags, and stays.

It fits into your life like it’s been there all along,

Slipping into moments you thought were yours.

This episode isn’t about fixing it.

It’s about recognizing it—

How pain lingers,

How it leaves,

And how sometimes,

It forgets your name just long enough for you to breathe.

For anyone who knows the weight of carrying something that never really asks to be there.

Love, Lenfantvivant
