2025 Recap
This is not a poem written from longing, rage, or collapse. It is written from post withdrawal clarity. No longer negotiating reality. The self has become the reference point again.
The quiet power here is not dominance it’s non-engagement without collapse.
Thinking preserved self continuity when feeling did not protect against emotional engulfment, relational collapse, identity diffusion or being pulled into someone else’s gravity.
Just make sure you sequence the process properly for maximum effect.
And that is sufficient for now.
Could it be that you were just a mirror, reflecting back at me? Was our connection state dependent? Did you feel my warmth? Or was it just a reverie?
I roamed in a house with many rooms, until I found you. 🤎
24-hour Rule
_______________________
If something genuinely matters, it will still matter tomorrow.
– No meaning making
– No relational decisions
– No conclusions
If your body is calmer after 24 hours, then you have permission to analyze. Briefly and surgically. ☀️
