Scar of comfort

"after a date"

How was it to spend time with a stranger?

Are you grateful for your time with him today?

Did you leave a trail of compassion or a scar of comfort for him?

Is there awe within you?

Do you consider what you both agreed on?

The clock is ticking, and the day is almost over.

Tomorrow is approaching; only a few hours left.

Send him a positive note.

Or just wait;

He might be the one who wakes you up with a sweet message.

    Such a gentle and reflective piece. I love how it captures the quiet uncertainty that follows a meaningful encounter—tender, hopeful, and beautifully human.

    Ah, this one feels tender and quietly reflective! You wrapped vulnerability in such simple, graceful lines. “Scar of comfort” itself is such a striking phrase.... it lingers like a thought you can’t quite shake. 💖
