Pencil Down at the Exam
A voice cuts the room — pencils — and the time that was yours a breath ago belongs now to everyone. Your hand keeps moving — a half-letter, the tail of a word — finishing what the clock has already taken back. There it is — that small flinching drop, an ending you saw coming for hours and never quite believed in.

Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
