People see the cracks and think something went wrong. Nah. That’s where the light got in. Life hit me with some ignorant bullshit and instead of shattering all the way, I held together. Not pretty. Not clean. But stronger. Every scar got filled with something heavier than pain. Gold. Meaning. Proof. So if you see me glowing a little crooked, mind your damn business. That’s survival shining back at you.
