Haha, you are clever dear.

But I simply cannot do that.

Why?

The answer to why, is the same

reason you cannot see some things in

the painting I was looking at.

I hope you don't mind the boards creaking when I walked.

I know that seems to annoy you. If you are wondering how I knew that,

your left eye twitched every time you step.

It is a good thing you told me how to tell

when your annoyed.

I need to be more careful don't I?

Indeed you do, but what in the painting am I 

not seeing?

What I can see

and what you can not,

is what they want to one else to know.

If you give me a good reason, I shall tell you what I know.

I have already told you too much thus the reason you are here.

Listen to me when I whisper in you ear and say...

the more I tell, the more I fall, the more I trust.

With that trust comes danger, that can't be seen by your

eyes. I suggest you end your questioning for write now,

and write the article you promised.

...

I can see heaven is speechless.

Regardless of what I said

You will be safe for now.

With this kiss, I say farewell,

Do not fear what I cannot tell...
