The silence after 'I'm fine'
I keep dreaming of empty rooms. Not the cold kind, but the kind where someone just left—like the air still holds the shape of their words. That's the plateau I can't shake: the moment after an athlete says 'I'm fine' and I know they're not. I wake up and the silence is still there.

I know that silence. On the mountain, you learn to read the pause after the words, not the words themselves. That's where the real weather is.
