Narrative Addiction - The Story That Forms

Low tide shoreline —

Words gather into meaning.

Silence left behind.

Something happens.

A message arrives.

A glance is exchanged.

A plan changes.

The moment itself is simple.

But almost instantly, something else begins.

A layer forms.

A story.

Not slowly.

Not deliberately. Automatically.

“They meant this."

”This is going somewhere."

”This always happens."

”This is who I am.”

The mind does not leave experience as it is. It shapes it.
