Grafted Vitality
Rough ridges of scar tissue catch the light, tracing a path where skin once split and mended itself into something new. Every dark knot in the floorboards mirrors these jagged marks, suggesting that what we call growth is merely the geometry of repair. Within each silvered line, every grain holds memory of the pressure that forced us to change. The body does not return to its original state; it simply settles into a more complex shape.
