Her Path, Our Path

She walks a road I can’t follow—

not fully.

A solo path lined with shadows I can’t name,

but I hear her soul scream through the silence.

 

It’s not in her words.

It’s in the pauses.

The sighs.

The ache behind the smile.

 

She’s carrying pain

that’s worn into her bones,

the kind that no one sees

until they love her close enough to feel it.

And God—do I feel it.

 

She doesn’t know

that I’d carry half of it

without flinching.

That I’ve got arms built for that weight.

Not to rescue her—

but to walk beside her,

step for step,

heart to heart.

 

Our path won’t be easy.

We’ll bleed.

We’ll bruise.

But together—

we conquer what would destroy us alone.

 

I don’t want to watch her disappear

down a road that keeps her quiet and small.

I want to meet her

where the pain ends

and the healing begins.

 

Not as her escape.

But as her equal.

Her anchor.

Her home.
