how do you say Live
to one who is backstage rehearsing their lines
how do you say Take flight
when you no longer dream of flying
how do you say Dive
to one who is afraid of drowning
how do you say Heal this heart
even as it wails in tender grief
how do you say Now, not a moment longer
to one who pretends it doesn’t matter anymore
how do you say Trust
when you can’t see through the darkness
how do you say Unfurl
when you want to fold up
how do you say Drop everything now
run, run, run to the Beloved
how do you say Let yourself be
drenched in Him
how do you say Grasp the Beloved’s hand
firmly in yours,
how do you say, Don’t let go
He knows the way.
