The moment your arms wrapped around me

The moment your arms wrapped around me,

I felt like a feather,

a leaf lifted in a gust of wind—

chaos faded like the steam off my tea,

every burden released,

a dance of safety in a storm.

You cradled my worry,

turned it into something warm,

like sunlight breaking through clouds,

leaving a weightless feeling,

a reminder of how rare it is

to simply let go, to trust the hold.

Now, I replay that moment,

like a needle stuck on a good song,

a fleeting jolt that carries me through,

carried—

a feeling that lingers, unseen.
