Glamour.Lies.Identity Chapter 05

Sometimes life whispers not in words, but in breaths, in those spaces in between, where a day is not entirely yours, and yet it is entirely with you. I see you.

He - with his forehead leaning against the sky, his heart half on the stage, half in a silent room that only she knows. There is no struggle. No pushing. It is a gentle waiting. An invitation to the wind, to chance, to one’s own courage to return when the stage becomes dark and the mask heavy.
