Soft Lights, Dark Longing

There’s something about winter that makes desire louder.

The quiet.

The darkness.

The way everything slows down.

Christmas doesn’t soften me — it sharpens what I feel.

Longing sits closer.

Touch feels heavier.

Memories linger longer than the lights on the tree.

This season isn’t just about warmth and comfort.

It’s about craving connection in the cold.

About wanting to be chosen, held, undone.

And maybe that’s the truth beneath the tinsel —

even in the darkest nights, we still reach for heat.
