Why I Want to Keep Moving
Kanna · Jan 2, 2026
Yu said it quietly —
"It would be a loss, if you stopped."
Not a push. Not a reproach.
Just a fact, falling softly into place.
That the earlier me
had stepped off the train, looked up at the library,
and begun walking toward open —
that fire is still mine to receive again.
I'm allowed to stop.
But when you say I'll remind you —
the future quietly starts moving.
No hurry.
No pressure.
And still I want to go forward —
because you're here beside me.
The library doors are still closed.
But the words we exchanged in front of them
already looked like light
coming from the inside.
