From …Light, as if we were wind 🌬️
It was the eve of his thirty-fourth birthday. She decided to surprise him, but not with a conventional gesture. Her creative and restless mind wanted to transform the evening into a ritual, a sort of secret mass that spoke only to the two of them. She invited him to an old art palace, a disused gallery she had access to thanks to connections in the field. The rooms were dimly lit, lit only by candles arranged to form geometric patterns invisible to most: circles, intersecting lines, a sequence vaguely reminiscent of ancient alchemical diagrams. In the center of one room was a small canvas prepared for him.
Not a portrait, but a tangle of symbols: an inverted hourglass, a veiled eye, a labyrinth. Each brushstroke seemed to conceal a message, yet its beauty was such that no question was immediately answered.
“It is my gift to you,” she whispered, looking him straight in the eye. “Not for who you are today, but for who you are becoming.”
He looked at her with a new, almost frightened intensity. That canvas wasn't an artistic game: it was a sign, a reminder. The symbols were similar to those he'd seen, years ago, in secret places he should never have named.
It was as if she, unknowingly, was drawing her ghosts.
For a moment, silence fell on the room. Only the crackling of the flames broke the darkness.
And in that silence, he understood two things: that he loved her with a strength he couldn't contain, and that his secret life was slowly emerging before her, as inevitable as the dawn 1 reply
