The Room Feels Different Now

And the light still falls the same across the wall

But something in the way it settles now

I take a few slow steps across the floor

Then stop for no reason at all

Not broken not empty just rearranged

Every corner holds less weight than before

But I still don't know what changed

And I'm standing in the same place

Just looking at it differently

Trying to understand

They just rest where they are

The air feels lighter on my skin

But it moves a little too far

I sit then stand again

Then forget why I moved

Like something shifted quietly

Not wrong not right just in between

Every quiet thing I missed before

And I don't feel the need

To fill the space with anything

I'm learning how to stay
