I. WHEN YOU WANT TO SCREAM AND NO WORDS COME OUT, WHISPER.
MAGGIE STIEFVATER ONCE SAID THAT PEOPLE SHOUT WHEN THEY DO NOT HAVE THE VOCABULARY TO WHISPER. SO WHISPER. {softly.}
II. WHEN YOU WANT TO DIE AND YOU BED ROTS OF LAZINESS AND YOU SOUL SEEMS TO STINK OF THE UNLIVING, HOW DARE YOU.
III. HOW DARE YOU WANT TO DIE WHEN YOU HAVE RISEN FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIME TO NOW THROUGH YOUR ANCESTORS. HOW DARE YOU MAKE THEIR LIVES MINUSCULE. HOW DARE YOU REDEEM THE EFFORTS OF YOUR ANCESTORS TO RESULT IN YOU. HOW DARE YOU UNDERMINE YOUR OWN SPIRIT.
IV. IM SHOUTING. I KNOW. i just- i don't know how to make you understand through whispering. my whispers arent soft enough to tickle your soul. I'm sorry.
V. I'm sorry, you have to stay, and I'm sorry you have to stay, but if you understand the difference, you have the energy to stay. you have the energy to want to stay. Stay, for your sake. Please. Stay.
