The wall was kind because it was quiet.We mistook the flicker of the wick for the birth of the sun,naming the silhouettes as if they were the gods of our own making.But your voice—it isn’t a shadow.It is the rough grit of the limestone as I turn my head,the ache of muscles that forgot they were meant for climbing.Do not fear the blinding white of the exit.The pain in your eyes is just the lightproving that you are finally,painfully,awake. 2.
