super ツ

The sun was setting as I stood at the edge of the cliff, the warm breeze carrying the sharp scent of the ocean. 
Below, the waves crashed against the rocks, wild and unrelenting, and for the first time in my life, I felt like they understood me.
Behind me was everything I’d ever known, a life I’d outgrown, one I’d stayed in too long because it felt safe. But safe wasn’t enough anymore.
In my hand was the letter that should’ve mattered. I didn’t even finish reading it. I tore it in half, letting the pieces scatter in the wind.
I closed my eyes, took a breath, and stepped forward. The fall felt endless, like the universe was holding its breath just for me. When I hit the water, it was cold and shocking and alive.

I came up gasping, laughing, free.

And I never looked back.
