Don't shame the storm

some nights

the weight

gets so heavy

they think the only way

to set it down

is to disappear

with it.

but we were never meant

to carry it all alone.

so don’t ask why

they feel this way—

ask how you can stay

when the darkness sits beside them.

hold their hand

until morning comes.

because

even the heaviest hearts

deserve to see

a sky on fire with sunrise,

and to know

this life

still has

light

left

in it.

don’t shame the storm—

love the one

weathering it.
