December, please give me the ending I deserve. Not perfect, not dramatic... just gentle. I've carried so much this yea... moments I didn't talk about, smiles I forced, decisions I made with a trembling heart. I've grown in ways even I didn't notice. And now, standing at the edge of the year, all I want is a quiet finish.... one that doesn't hurt, one that doesn't test me again. Be kind to me. Be kind to the people I love. Be kind to the people who are still figuring themselves out. Let this month soften the sharp edges life left behind. Let it bring clarity, warmth, and a little hope for all of us. We've all survived something... we all deserve a gentle ending.
