You stood where the world cracks open, watched the earth breathe flame and felt the sky break into color.

And I, half a continent away, felt something in me shift.

Not from missing, but from knowing: your feet are on the path they need to be.

Still, somewhere inside the mountain of me, you remain, quiet, warm, still glowing after the eruption.

Take a moment before choosing what comes next.
