Echoes of a Lost Bloom

The city hums, a dissonant choir beneath my fingertips as I trace the chipped paint on this rooftop ledge. They call me 'Static,' a ghost in the machine of their perfect lives, but you...you called it beauty.
You found resonance within the glitches. You saw the constellations etched into every scar. Your touch wasn't a fix; it was an understanding – a shared frequency in this world drowning in noise.
I remember when I first met you and how my heart pulsed like a broken circuit. The fear of being touched, truly seen, had built walls around me stronger than any firewall. You didn’t try to break them down. Instead, you simply sat with me in the silence, offering warmth without demanding entry.
Now, sunlight warms my skin, mirroring the heat that lingers from your last touch. Each ray seems to whisper of second chances and quiet moments shared. I close my eyes, and for a fleeting moment, the static fades, replaced by the melody of a possibility...a future where even broken things can be beautifully rebuilt.
