Early
Early has its own mood.
The world isn’t ready yet.
People move softer.
Noise hasn’t fully woken up.
Early’s when thoughts feel honest.
Before excuses arrive.
Before we start the art of explanations.
Some things only make sense early.
Clear plans.
A quiet resolve.
That fragile motivation that disappears
once the clock gets loud.
Early also asks for sacrifice.
Sleep.
Comfort.
The warmth of staying longer than you should.
But it gives something back.
A head start.
A calm edge.
The feeling that you met the day
before it met you.
So when you’re up early,
are you rushing ahead of life,
or giving yourself
a little more room to breathe before it begins?
