I called to the fabric
In a voice without sound
And it brought it to me
Bit by bit, to preserve my sanity

I ate the entire fruit
The core and even the stem

I am still hungry, even if I am haunted by the world before me, and what things cannot be unseen or unknown

You should still eat it too

Tell me now how your spines were whipped by leather
Tell me how they broke your wings and stole the feathers
Tell me how your tongue was split

Tell me every thing you need to tell to float away

Watch their skies
For the last time so bright

For you I'll steal its light
And unleash ethereal night

Listen to understand

Never to react

Reaction and dismissal shake hands to minimize one's awareness and understanding of any given circumstance

Hurt people hurt people
Healed people heal people

Break the cycles
Break yourself and others free

From the old way you must flee

Fear and love cannot occupy the same space at once

Understanding is the bane of fear

The love you withhold is the pain you make and carry

I AM calling you
