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.
