    It is time for a rest now.

    Just a breather – a refresher – a post purge quiet.

    You have seen the storm – been in it – now find the eye of the same and just be still a while.

    Eventually everything will touch down again but for now the suspension is a calm place you can be.

    I have been there – you don’t exactly float – you just rest and wait.

    Love you,
    L.

    P.S.?

    The brevity and spacing of this piece is fucking genius – (I just wanted you to know.)
