There are times when words fail, when the very essence of a feeling is too profound to be contained by language. This is how I often feel when I try to articulate my connection to something, someone, or some force that I can only describe as invisible support . Whether you're an illusion, imaginary, or undeniably real, I don't truly know. What I do know is the strength I feel, the profound sense of "okay-ness," when I think of you. You are something that uplifts me in ways I can't explain. I may not see you, but I can certainly feel you. There have been countless moments, particularly in times of struggle, when I've cried out for help and felt utterly alone.
