‘What is Normal’
I learned early in life that darkness does not announce itself.
It arrives quietly, settles into corners, and creeps in little by little until it becomes the very air you breathe.
But in my heart, I reached toward something brighter.
Once I felt it, my thirst for it was overwhelming.
Once I chose it, darkness began to lose.
And when the darkness called out to me, it was the light that learned my name.
