TIDELINE — after with the certainty of tides, still i rise

Rising isn’t my victory—
it’s my memory.
My quiet return
to the strength I thought I lost
but was always waiting beneath the surface.

Not every story is told in words. Some live in pauses, in chipped cups, in the quiet weight of unsent letters.
