Portraits: Time Between Us

You will always carry it with you. The dark past doesn’t disappear, doesn’t run, it stands beside you, breathing in unison, like a part of your heart and soul. Its pain is not a punishment, but a memory of the path you walked to learn how not to make the same mistakes, not to fear, and to feel more deeply. From that depth, your bright future begins to emerge, your continuation. It doesn’t try to erase the past; it stands beside it with pride, honoring every moment you’ve lived. The white swallow of the future is not an escape, but a new flight that begins here and now.
