Something Sweet

Sometimes you just need it. Not for any reason. Not because you’re celebrating or because you deserve it or because some wellness influencer said it’s fine to indulge. You just need the feeling of something dissolving on your tongue, the shock of sugar, the way your brain lights up for a second and everything else gets quiet. It’s the most honest appetite there is—no story attached, no justification required. Just that moment before you eat it and the moment after, when the sweetness is still there and you’re not thinking about anything else.
