Welcome

Come in. Sit.

It has not been easy

It’s better nowhere. You say. But it sounds like a question about here, where you want to be whole

In a world of parts.

I know things seem impossible

I’m glad you are here

I am happy to see you

I can’t imagine this world without you

Drink the water. Throw your shoulders back. Raise your head.

Giving up is a distant game

A tired compromise that seemed likely as the light fades each day.

Thank you for giving up and returning

For giving up and arriving

For giving up and asking

Here

Where you are beloved and worth the long wait.
