There are things we remember clearly.
Bright colors.
Simple laughter.
Worlds that felt safe without question.
Some memories stay that way.
Others… change when you look at them again.
I wanted to revisit something familiar.
Not to break it—
but to see what was always there, just beneath it.
What happens when the light shifts?
When the sound carries a little farther than it should?
When something that felt harmless…
feels like it’s watching back?
This piece started as nostalgia.
It didn’t stay that way.
There’s a moment in it—
you’ll know it when you hear it—
where everything feels just a little different.
That moment matters.
Some things don’t disappear.
They just wait deeper down.
