It’s not the laughter in a crowded room,
Nor the selfies, likes, or filtered bloom—
But how you glance and just understand,
Without a word, you take my hand.
You see the mess behind my smile,
You sit with me and stay awhile.
No fixing, forcing, judgment shown—
Just quiet proof: I’m not alone.
You know the stories I don’t tell,
The storms I hide, the silent hell.
Yet never once do I feel thrown—
