The Solemn Sequel

At Dawn, We Begin

There I was, sitting on a bench, staring into the vast landscape before me. Everything looked so calm; the birds whistling, the crickets softly chirping in the background and the wind gently caressing my skin.

While my skin absorbed the warmth of the sun, my heart froze.

How did it come to this?

I only ever wanted the best for everyone.

Yet I always forgot myself.

Is that where I went wrong?

"You have to love yourself before you can love someone else."

A quote that haunted me for years. It still does. I never appreciated myself as much as I should. 

Before I go on another adventure I feel I'll have to send off the past one final time.

To clear things up. Finally.

Calming the disturbed waters in the lake.

It's time.

So be prepared.
