For a time you stopped listening to me.

And you started listening to that voice that tells you you can't, that it's impossible, that you shouldn't, that it won't happen.

It can't come to pass. You're too old or it's too late.

But ask that voice, who is speaking right now?

And watch it shut up.

Watch it get quiet.

Watch it reveal the silence that's actually there.

And then that silence speaks and sometimes it sounds like this voice.

But often it's sword-like. It's quick. It's fiery. It's beyond you. Even though it will sound like you, you will know it is me, the clarity. You are much further along than it appears. You are closer than close.

You are in it.

In the room you built for yourself.

At the table you built for yourself.

In the mansion I prepared for you, only love is here.

Only love in every step, in every breath, look past it all to the all I have for you.

Draw it out. I love you.
