Hope
-
After they left, the fire remained—and grief slowly revealed itself as the same stubborn life still writing, rebuilding, and choosing tomorrow.
-
Where answers should have been, silence leaves echoes, imagined explanations, and the question of whether disappearing was the destination all along.

An unfinished sentence becomes a declaration of everything survival, grief, motherhood, and becoming have made her.
