Chapter 2 — The Shadows I Carried

I moved through life like someone walking inside a fragile dream. Silent. Alert. Inhabited.

I felt other people’s emotions like waves passing through my body.

I carried weights with no names. I lived with a shadow that wasn’t mine.

Video games were my secret doors.

My parallel worlds. My breaths.

I got lost to survive.

I stayed quiet to exist.

I smiled to avoid disappearing.

Then one day, a tiny light slipped through the crack.

A sentence. A silence. A sign.


The beginning of another breath.
