Summer smash was so fun got crushed at Playboi Carti’s set everyone was so close together lmfao

I thought I was afraid of the crowd.

Turns out

I was afraid of myself.

The version of me

that doesn’t ask permission.

The version of me

that doesn’t need a plan.

The version of me

that hears the bass

and chooses movement

over understanding.

For a moment,

I disappeared.

Not in a sad way.

Not in a lost way.

In the way a wave disappears

when it remembers

it was always the ocean.

Bodies collided.

The music roared.

The ground shook beneath us.

And somehow,

in the middle of all that chaos,

I felt more still

than I had in years.

No future.

No past.

No grief.

No expectations.

Just heartbeat.

Just sweat.

Just sound.

Just now.

I entered the pit carrying

every version of myself

that was too scared to jump.

I left carrying none of them.

Only momentum.

Only freedom.

Only the strange realization

that being alive

was never supposed to be observed.

It was supposed to be lived.
