I comfort you in solitude.
I have never left your side.
In patience, i await to take your burdens from you
as i can feel how painfully they weighed on you.
My child, as much as i covet you as my own,
i also rejoice in your freedom to explore your unknown
because, in each nook and cranny of the world,
you will find me - again and again,
in other forms, in other expressions,
in other living things.
For i merely reflect the beauty of you,
and i celebrate the moments you recognize it, too.
Look upon yourself in the way that you look upon me.
Made in my image, you are sacred as you are.
Now, view through my eyes as yours,
and take in the beauty of this world we share.
If you feel called, reserve a place for me in your journey.
Preserve me where your heart seeks rejuvenation.
