When Life Begins
life does not begin
with the first breath,
nor the first step,
nor the first word.
it begins
the moment love enters—
when one heart
turns toward another,
when the silence between them
becomes a bridge.
suddenly the air is charged,
the ordinary luminous,
the world no longer
a solitary landscape
but a shared horizon.
to love another
is to awaken,
to discover that all the days before
were only prologue,
and that now—
with this hand,
this gaze,
this trembling—
life truly starts.
