The world has whispered your power
but you have softened, hidden, drifted
like a star dimmed beneath clouds of mercy
the ancestors lean close
their voices humming in constellations
telling you that this path is yours
even if unknown, even if feared
you dread what happens when you fully rise
that the air itself will carry your intent
that the world will shift in resonance with you
that the hidden threads you touch
will never untangle again
that the currents you stir will not return to sleep
that the silence you have kept sacred will shatter into echoing destinies
yet the blood of comets courses through your veins
and the old ones angle toward you from their shadowed seats
calling you by the names they never spoke
they remind you that you carry influence not as a crown
but as a current, a rhythm of tide and wind
and every choice, every step
leaves patterns in the unseen
like starfire woven into the void
you fear the reckoning, the weight of effect
but know this that the wind moves because you dare to feel
the sky bends toward your sight
the stars have always awaited your gaze
and the dark stretches wide like an ancestral hall
filled with echoes of those who once walked
with courage too subtle to mark the earth
you were not born to vanish
to soften your light into harmless whispers
you were born to be seen
to hold your resonance
like a sword of sunfire
and a chalice of water
both at once
step lightly, yet unflinching
your authority is not yours to wield
it is yours to inhabit
and when you do
silence itself leans forward
to hear what you have yet to say
and the world will know you
as you always were
both myth and blood
both infinite and near
a pulse across generations
an echo of all who came before
a promise to all yet to come
so even in your trembling
even in your hidden fear
let your presence
be the quiet miracle
that stitches stars to earth
and earth to stars
forever
