Don't Stop

Sometimes silence speaks louder than words. You just stand there in the silence and realize that even minutes can weigh a ton. Everything seems to be the same - the walls, the air, the footsteps - but inside, it's as if someone has pressed “pause.” Only your heart, like a stubborn drummer, keeps beating out the rhythm: “Try again, don't stop.”

And at some point, the darkness ceases to be frightening. It becomes something like a soft blanket in which you can hide a little, catch your breath, and suddenly realize that this is not the end. It's just time testing how tightly you hold on to yourself. And perhaps it is from this darkness that light will eventually grow.
