“To soften is not to break. It is to bloom differently.”
There’s a shift you can’t quite name.
Not loud, not sudden. But present.
It stirs in your stillness.
It tugs gently at the seams of your becoming.
This is the moment before the bloom:
when the bud loosens,
when the breath deepens,
when you begin to believe that softness could be strength.
The Muse doesn’t run this time.
She listens.
To the quiet hunger of her skin,
to the pulse in her palms,
to the way light spills across her collarbone like a promise.
There is no finish line.
Just a deeper unfolding.
And you, right here in it;
braver than ever,
without needing to prove it.
