now please, close your eye and settle down.

you're in good company here.
surrounded by your kind, and in my gilded arms.

the wretched face isn't gone,
and always, it will wait. but
it can't make itself known here.
so rest here. rest with us for as long as
you feel you must. but not forever!
indeed, your purpose remains.

to tell this story,
beyond even the worst of sights.
we call on you, for we depend on you.

this is how we shall persist, even in ultimate death.
we plead of you, do not cast aside this golden opportunity.

know that you are welcome to return here whenever you feel
that you need our warmth. we will remain here,
and shall wait for you eagerly.

sincerely, please take care out there.
