Sniff Your Tears Away- L

It doesn’t take the pain away.
It just changes its shape.

What begins as an attempt to escape becomes a ritual—quiet, repetitive, almost invisible to the outside world. A line drawn not just on a surface, but between who you are… and who you are slowly becoming.

The tears are still there.
Only now, they are hidden behind numbness.

In daylight, it can almost disappear—
controlled, contained, unnoticed.

But in the dark, it returns.
Fluorescent. Unavoidable. Alive.

What is pushed down does not vanish.
It waits for silence to speak louder.

The body remembers.
The mind keeps score.

What looks like control is often surrender in disguise.
What feels like relief is only a pause before the fall returns.

This is not rebellion.
This is exhaustion looking for silence.

And the question remains:

Are you healing—
or are you just delaying the pain?
