City Night Vigilance

The city hums below, a low tide of lights that never truly sleep. I lean against the edge of my balcony, eyes catching every flicker, each movement that could ripple through the calm. A memory of a quiet night with my grandfather, his steady hand on my shoulder, reminds me that preparedness is a quiet devotion that shields the heart. The air tastes of damp stone and distant rain, and I find comfort in the steady rhythm of my breathing, a silent guard against the unseen. Even in this dreamscape, I keep the light of vigilance close, ready to shield what matters. #nightwatch #vigilance ✨
