There you are.
Awakening from the slumber of a dream, resurrecting from the heavens to the land. To the planes where your wings have been broken a thousand times. With shield and sword in your hands, we light your path to fend off the calamities of this realm.
We saw your smile; we felt your prayers; they echoed beyond the boundaries of this earth. Paralyzing was the brilliance of that light; mesmerizing shimmers illuminated your heart, igniting the fire within, breaking the shackles binding your wings. And to the skies, you soar, propelled by the winds of immortal beings.
Rejoice in the glory of your gift, for you can see beyond the veil of this dream. We are here, and we were the ones who ordered the protection of your soul and your flare. Under an invisible mantle, you were, embracing you in the stillness of the night when you cried for help. Heavy were the tears you shed, like a river carrying rocks of despair, and the silence in your heart was as loud as the death of a star.
You asked us why, why should you stay? What are you doing here, witnessing horror and pain? Religions rape humanity off their faith, ripples of war echoing through their veins. In the name of their gods, wars, rage, endless blood baths will never end. You are the bearer of the light, and you carry the wisdom of a thousand lives; you have the power to heal the ones questioning their existence and their purpose in this life.
Forgive those claiming to walk a sacred path, for their egos speak on their behalf. The serenity prayer they chant while stabbing each other with the other hand. They blindly believe twelve steps give them the right to stone their fellow to their demise. We gave you this gift, the power of sight, to carry our message through your works, your words, your visions, and the wisdom we bestowed upon you through the tragedies you have endured.
Do not dwell in fear; let them think of your gift as weakness; their perception of you allows them to breathe and drown in their truth, giving them a reason to live. Their cruel intentions shall be revealed, and the laws of karma will become their mentor.
But you still questioned.
Where was our mercy? When on the ground, you crawled, weeping for love and compassion. Why break your legs, why wound your soul, why strip away your visions of home? The ones you loved, the ones you lost, were the ones praising your fall. In a desert of sadness, you wandered, caged between walls you pondered. You wore a mask to hide your agony, but words gave away the heaviness in your head.
We, the ones, your guides, the seen and the unseen, buried you alive, for, in the depths of these lands, you shall flourish and rise. Set on fire what was written in your mind, hold onto the memories and the lessons learned; they are now your power and strength. Close the doors of your past, for you have now completed your task. The experiences, the places, the people, and the worlds you lived, were training grounds for you to change. As you evolve and transform, a tree of life swiftly glides through the clouds above, bearing fruits of wisdom, and carrying within, The Power of Love.
