BEGONE (Death Has Two Voices If You Listen) - REPOST

When you see me coming, open. I am a warning that you have been called. You must play this part. I am firm. There is no return to what has been.

This is the beginning of what you have never dared imagine. The patterns through which you are working are leading to your end. I will be more and more ominous to you now. I will strike fear into your heart — for I am kind and you cannot understand it.

Listen and let me make this a comfort for you: You will continue to be a part of this. You always have been. You’ve forgotten that it was supposed to feel like a dream. A string of moments bound together in what some might call poetry. And now I am shaking you from the bed. There’s nothing to be afraid of. This is the design.

All I ask is that you transform. Make everything anew. If you surrender to me, I assure you, the process will be glorious. You will only feel pain if you believe in it. Do not try to hide. Do not resist the form that awaits you. For I will come again.

My arrival could draw out your delight. If only you would understand. Remember that you wouldn’t exist if atoms hadn’t exploded and died for you.

Trust in me. You will see this world again. And so will your friends.

Look at this: Maybe next time you’re a bee that feeds off of their flower. Or a fish that swims in their pond. Even if you’re an oak tree in America and they’re a cherry blossom in Japan, you’ll still be breathing the same air on the same planet which is here because of love.

Now…begone.
