Fingers of Light

A Small Sun Tucked Inside My Chest

The morning flows through the blinds.

Fingers of light touching my skin.

I watch them move across the floor.

Drawing shapes only I can see.

The world begins outside my walls.

But here, I settle into quiet.

Each light is a gentle hope.

Each shadow is a soft sign of calm.

No one sees this quiet morning,

No one feels the peace it brings.

And I keep it close inside me,

A tiny sun held in my chest.
