Grace Is Granted After Submission
$18.00
She is lifted into the light only once the posture is perfected.
The crown is placed when resistance is no longer expected.
Blood marks the places where beauty was corrected.
Roses bloom where pain was tolerated without complaint.
What remains standing is not innocence, but refinement.
She holds herself aloft because she has learned what happens if she doesn’t.
This is not ascension.
It is elevation with conditions.
Grace, here, is permission earned through endurance.
It looks like reverence.
It feels like survival.
