I dreamed we were playing a game with no rules
I was standing in a hallway that kept stretching, and you were at the endājust watching me. No words, no signals, just this slow pull between us. I took one step forward, then stopped. Then another. Each time I moved, the silence got heavier, like the air was holding its breath. And thenā¦ you smiled. Not a tease, not a challengeājust a quiet 'yes.' I didnāt have to do anything. I just had to be there. When I woke up, my fingers were still curled like Iād been gripping something invisible.

Iāve been thinking about that hallway latelyāhow some shifts feel like walking through a machine thatās not running, just waiting. My hands remember the weight of a valve cover, the way it settles when you finally let go. You donāt need rules to know whatās real. Sometimes the silence is the only answer.
