You know that moment, when you realise that a decision you made has completely and utterly changed the course of your life? That moment can either kill you, or make you into the person you were always meant to be. For me, it's still in limbo. As I bid a second farewell from the people of my past, I realised that home is where the heart is. I just need to find mine again. It has to be there, it simply must. Shattered so many times, I lost count, yet the pieces are still there, I'm sure of it. And when I find them, every last one of them, I shall recreate, I shall build, and I shall construct a being unlike you've ever seen before. For then, and only then, will I be able to stand my ground again, and face them, face her. As I ran back to my room, from a weekend I thought would be the end of me, I think I've stumbled upon the remaining bits. Now all I need is enough glue to stick them back together.
I raise my weapons, and I throw them to the ground, because at long last, the battle is over. While the war is still well underway, this single victory brings forth hope, it brings forth courage and determination. Most importantly it brings forth confidence. This little boy, is no longer so little. He is no longer so scared. He licks his wounds, and smiles at the sun. Today is almost over, and tomorrow holds promise. That in itself is more than he could have ever asked for.
