Cynicism's Quiet Cost

16 min

Cynicism can feel like clarity, especially when caring has become too expensive. Here, each small dismissal is treated as both protection and cost: a way of staying intact that slowly builds distance from what once mattered. The work is not to drop the armour, but to ask where it is still worth its weight.

Grounded, even, steady

Grounded and even, the same calm weight on every line — present without pushing, steady when the moment isn't.
