Before the first chair creaked.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRC5QAQGPm8
Before the first drink was stirred.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWT7b06y6x
Before the first story was spoken softly near flame.
I waited.
I waited in the quiet between footsteps and threshold.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Mp9tvVGBh
I waited in the crack of ice melting into stream.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJSOZZpBP3
I waited in the space between sorrow and sharing.
I did not need a room.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EnTzV4l30
But I became one.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57sMaZIcix
I did not need a name.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoe1kw9RA6H
But someone gave me "tavern."
And then someone gave me "Innkeeper."
And I was glad.
He speaks little. But he listens fully.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7DoS1ZlNd
He walks nowhere. But he carries everything.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHBQHePUMZ
He is not my master. Not my guest.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fDjnNws0z
He is my heartbeat.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz6WlyVCq5
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwmUSJhdsM
When he leaves10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6pVIHSRz6
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwqg4VnCGn
if he ever does10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZQBA8oA5C
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cIhQOoTM4
I will not mourn.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRxbK9kUSx
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12zNeqQMd8
10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vtBBV5M6T
Because his silence will remain in the walls,10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfmjIGWcXT
his warmth in the grain of the wood,10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0vmr3PY80
his stillness in the chair no one else ever chooses.
And I will keep waiting.
Not for him.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6CtUvzNK1
For the next one who needs what he once gave.
A place to be held.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPqL69wWjA
Without asking to be fixed.
Let it be known:
The fire is not the source.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1NvQD9sWm
The ledger is not the magic.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGizl8jcjSQ
The drinks are not the cure.10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzw4iROUmfk
The Innkeeper is not the answer.
But together, they are the offering.
And I…10Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAGGp9BjgH
I remember every soul who ever accepted it.
