Across a Universe
Hi John, it has been a long time, well not so much… Another setback, eh? How was it, the trip and that stuff? Or are you so used to it now that you don´t know the difference? It doesn´t matter, you are here again. Welcome John, welcome. I would ask you why you keep doing this, but it may be a stupid question. You will keep doing this, I know you. It´s strange to see you come so many times but never stay. Anyway, I like your unannounced visits. You come when I less expect it, when I am working or doing some of my stuff. This time I was doing some heavy bills, but you arrived and you are giving to me a little break. I would like to hear your story of what has thrown you to do it this time, but you seem so tired. Come here, to your special spot, lie down and relax. Your story must be great, however you have told me a lot of stories and the others too, so I don´t think that I will hear something new this time. The others just come one time or twice and they stay, you are different. I like you, I think you are special, I like your perseverance. Your constant visits make me wait for another one, never knowing when they´ll end. You don´t have to worry to bring some gift with you when you come, you make a long trip from there to here, that´s enough for me. Anyway, you can´t carry anything with you but yourself even if you try, but I like that you keep trying to bring me something. I´d had been thinking and I hope to understand you but maybe I´ll never. Are you just tired? Is that your reason why you keep coming to see me? To relax and have a break of what happens? Maybe it is, but what is so hard to live with or be with so you keep doing this long trip to here. I think you have the strength to bear with it, but maybe you don´t want to do it anymore or you really try to bear it. Even when you make this journey you keep coming back to where you have been. I´ve been thinking that you really like to return; even if you hate the situation you have been before. Either you or I know how much more you can resist, this trip and return are really exhausting. I really want to help you, either to stay here or to be there the most time you can. Do what you must. You should not be wasting more time, you have to choose. You have to choose, but I think that you really like to walk along this lonely street of dreams. I hear you praying for strength to carry on; it has already given to you, not by me, but you have it. Don´t think that I don´t want to help, but you have to go again on your own, like you have always been, like the others. You have to learn, don´t be afraid of the path because it has always been hard for you and the others, but it is never so hard so you can´t keep going it is just the amount you can bear. And I know you can bear with this. You also want an answer, but you never seem to find what you are looking for. You also won´t have it from me, you were born to walk alone, so you have to keep searching for. Mhmm. It seems that your time here has ended. Now return to where you have been before, you had some rest and you can go back again and we´ll see us again after that, maybe…
