The eye above
There is a veil of gold above me, an eye watching me through a
cloud. I am not aware of how many spirits converse in heaven for my
sake, but I know full well that you are one of them. Of course you
cannot really converse with them. You are the angel in a corner, dark
and handsome, sitting thoughtfully with your arms crossed on top of
your knees. Your eyes are deep in meditation, your face a bit tense
from caring, your sharp, acute thoughts whizzing around your head and
body like swallows. Of course you
are not part of them, you do know that. Little do you care: you are too busy
thinking of what to do until you share their power.
Dear one, I can already feel that you do not think I, you don't think she, as much as you think us.
I am a lonely person and very few people have thought that way for me.
Why is it that, although you are geographically so remote, I often feel
your gaze upon me from high above; your love descending on my shoulders
like a bird with his wings spread wide? I told someone recently that
our friendship was, somehow, like a guardian angel relationship. That
did not sound unreasonable.
Dearest, I am protected by your light,
and kept safe by your purity. I pray for you not just because I love
you; I pray for you because you do pray for me, so how could I help it?
Please,
do not falter, my friend. Do not let your tension weaken. Keep caring,
keep nurturing the flame. With your help, I have already seen snakes crawl away in
haste before my feet. I have already found my way in the darkest woods
after catching a glimpse of your light. Keep watching me, angel. Keep
changing into a breeze and letting me know you're there. Just do not stop whispering softly to my heart. Keep
sheltering me from evil, shielding my path from the unscrupulous. Nobody hears you but
me, and such is our strength. Criminals have already given up. Traitors have failed to crush me;
they have thrown dirt to me and it did not stick. Oh, beloved, keep
holding the light for me.
