The house is still except for the soft tick of the wall clock. You curl into the couch, alone with thoughts that sometimes echo too loudly.
It’s not always a bad kind of alone, but it’s heavy—this silence that stretches hours between texts and calls that never come. You wonder if being by yourself means being invisible.
Then a small comfort blooms. Maybe the quiet isn’t empty. Maybe this time alone is a chance to meet yourself without distraction—to rest, to listen, to breathe.
You can be alone and still be whole.
