The Room Where I Wait
I sit in a room
where nothing moves —
except my breath
and a small memory
that knocks like a stranger.
The fan hums like a prayer
I never learned.
The walls don’t talk,
but they listen.
More than anyone ever did.
I don’t cry.
I just sit.
Like I’ve always done.
Like the chair knows me
better than my own hands.
Some days,
I think the light left me.
But then a soft breeze touches my face
and reminds me —
I’m still here.
I’m still here.
