Dedication
To the one whose presence changed me:
You will recognize yourself in these pages long before your name is ever spoken.
You were chosen in my heart without hesitation,
loved in the quiet places where truth lives unguarded.
For the one who never needed to be named to know—
your light echoes through my soul still,
softly, deeply, honestly.
Thank you for the love that awakened me,
the ache that shaped me,
and the memory that will always glow gently in the spaces only you could fill.
No name needed.
You will know.
