1/2 Awakening I found myself today in the space between raindrops, in the whisper of leaves I used to know by heart. Not in the polished reflection of everyone's expectations, not in the carefully crafted smile I've worn like armor, but in the quiet moments when no one was watching. I remembered how to dance with my shadow at midnight, how to taste starlight on my uncertain tongue, how to wear my scars like constellations.
