Me (to God):

Beautiful new frontier! High above the rain in the atmosphere … what wonders I have discovered! My soul is ever clear. Never felt the way I do with You here. I hope there’s never another. So, sing tonight! I’m ever bright! Burning through space … I see Your face … I could beat kryptonite! I’m so alive, forever high! I love You, Papa! I’ll wait if You take forever long and keep listening for Your song.

God (to Me):

Hold on, my dear, there’ll be no fear! You’re leaving this world behind. Far away above the Earth we’ll soar through the curvature away from all our dark matters and escape the barriers you’ve manufactured going into the hereafter. All good things must come to pass. Now is your time! I love you more, daughter.

For the record …

Yes, this conversation really happened the first time I ever heard this song on it’s birthday two years ago this day.

Yes, it reduces me to uncontrollable, beautiful tears EVERY single time I hear it.

Yes, I really believe I can hear my Papa’s songs as I’m flying through the curvature of the not so dark matters in my soul through space and time, and that He actually rejoices when He hears me singing mine.

No, I’m not afraid to leave this world behind when it’s time, because I’m a little bit crazy that way and Death truly is “nothing at all“.

Yes, I’ve separated myself and my divinely punctuated soul from the world I used to know and will reintegrate if and when I’m ever ready to. I wouldn’t even want to BE like “everyone else” in the faceless, faithless crowd in the first place, so “crazy” works just FINE for me! At the end of the day, God sees my face and that’s all that really matters.

Bye everyone, it’s me, CAT, and I’m God’s ABSOLUTE favorite daughter!
