Some pains are so deep that they need no validation
Some pains are so deep that they need no validation.
At times, silence itself settles on the chest like a cold stone; it steals the breath, strangles the voice in the throat. And when you finally open your mouth, you realize that words, too, have weight, the weight of lingering memories, the weight of unnamed fears, the weight of a wound not yet spoken. Silence slowly suffocates, and speech leaves you exposed, defenseless, standing in the wind.
That is why some pains are neither spoken nor hidden; they simply remain. They sit beside you, walk with you, breathe with you, and grow old with you.
Yet despite all this, there are moments when some people, though physically distant—are unconsciously very near, as if they breathe beside you and hear the words you never say. Without a single question… and in that moment, something begins to sprout within this deep pain: a small but powerful belief, that goodness is still breathing, no matter how faint or faded it may have become.
