Shivering

Shivering
is the body remembering
it is alive.

Not just from cold—
but from moments
that pass too close,
from truths whispered
without warning.

It’s the quiet tremor
after a door closes.
The ripple left
when memory brushes the skin.

Sometimes we shiver
before we understand why.
The soul sensing weather
the mind hasn’t named yet.

And sometimes,
shivering is courage—
the willingness to stay present
even when warmth feels far away.

Wrap the shoulders.
Breathe slowly.
This, too, passes.
