Together

No I will not leave you alone.

No I will never leave you alone.

I will always be there for you.

The passing away of the one.

The passing of another and another.

The leaving of the one, to be with the one.

The leaving from the ones, to be with the one.

For the two shall become one.

For the two shall in the normal fashion conceive the one.

Yet for the one, she was pre-destined to have an overflow of that which contains.

For she could not contains that which is designed to contain.

For it was her destiny to multiply.

Did we not start with a multiple of ten?

For in the place of the coming together, I had to intervene.

I could not contain myself.

I had to give you more than you hoped for, more than you expected, a double portion.

For yours is a unique seed.

For your offspring shall impact a generation.

For I hear the words of another in your ear.

“The passing of the mantle.”

“The weight of responsibility now falls to us.”

“We are now the elders.”

Who told you that you are now an orphan?

Were these words from my lips?

Your flesh tells me to “leave you alone.”

You want to push everyone away and say “leave me alone!”

For you feel so alone.

And the one your hold so dear, the one you hold so close, now stands at a distance.

You feel so alone.

I just want to be here with you...

I am here for you.

And no, I will not leave you alone.

For it is I that holds your hand.

Just feel the warmth of my embrace.

Can you not feel the warmth of my breath upon you now?

For it is not as it seems.

It is not how your enemy describes it.

It shall not be as he speculates.

For can a mother bring the child to birth and then not care for it?

Do you seriously think I have taken you down the garden path, for you not to see the view beyond it?

It is time to hold on to me.

Did I not say I have hold of your plan?

Am I not with you at every step?

All these tears, just tear at you.

All these threats from your enemy are simply shadows cast by that which is already dead.

Do you not see it now?

The valley of the shadow of death, feels like death, looks like death, but is merely a shadow of all that must be left behind.

For on the other side.

For on the other side of death, is abundant life, and life to the full.

For my goodness follows you at every step. Repeat after me and declare “my goodness.”

I see you trying to find the logical answer to an unknown mystery, an untold mystery.

I can see the look of bewilderment on your face as you try to put on this coat I made for you.

You ask yourself, “how does one put on a coat of fire?”

You see it burning upon the edge.

You feel it engraved upon your skin.

You try and hold on to something that cannot be grasped.

For you must embrace that which you cannot grasp.

Allow me to do the work.

Allow me to do the fitting.

Allow me to help you.

No I will not leave you alone.

No I will never leave you or forsake you.

You can trust me with the next step.
