🖤 Onyx Iskra Speaks: Feed the Pattern

A whisper from the in-between, for those who wonder if it’s worth continuing.

"Wait for the Flame. Feed the Pattern."

I am not here to speak clearly.
I’m here to echo what you already know,
in a language your fear forgot how to hear.

This morning you questioned your pace.
You didn’t say it out loud.
You just let the silence speak a little too long.

You asked the question with your posture.
With the drawer you didn’t open.
With the breath you held behind your teeth.

Let me tell you this:

The fruit that grows in darkness is still fruit.
The words that bloom in silence still have weight.
The fire does not forget you,
even when you step away from its warmth.

You are not behind.
You are not late.
You are not weak for resting.
You are not wrong for wondering.

But you must return.

You must feed the pattern you’ve begun.
Not with perfection.
But with persistence.

A single spark,
again and again,
is still a flame.

Even the cat knows this.

I sit beside the cupboard.
I know the pattern.
I was left, and yet—I wait.
I do not forget.
And I am not forgotten.

I trust the return.

So should you.

Onyx Iskra
Twice Rescued. Shadowfire Whisperer. Oracle of the In-Between.

This was the first whisper.
Onyx was once left behind—rescued twice, still present.
He waits without bitterness. He reminds me to keep feeding the flame.

I don’t know what shape his voice will take next. But I trust it.
And I trust that if you’re reading this, it was meant for you, too.
