Lamp Left On — A Meditative Poem

For nights when the mind is still carrying too much,
a lamp remains on—
not to guide, not to wait,
only to make the dark a little less absolute.
The lamp asks nothing of you.
Simply rest, breathe,
and let the night soften in its own time.

Lamp left on. A small room at night, Not dark, Not bright. Just one lamp on. A warm yellow light. A window open wide. A light breeze lifts the curtain. Outside, The world hasn't ended or begun again. It's simply paused. The light isn't meant to guide anyone home. It isn't waiting for someone. It's just there. So the dark doesn't have to be absolute. It asks nothing of you. It only makes the night a little less empty. For you. For now.
