...further than I could ever imagine.

A long torturous downward spiral toward impending doom...
It was barely a year ago I was brimming with confidence, full of conviction and ruthlessly bold. So much, too much in fact, have changed in the span of a year. Was it fear? Pain? I do not know. All I know is that my resolve chipped away and eventually shattered. Certainly I did not choose to tread on this path. Yet I am consigned to an almost-certain doom no matter which road I take now. Walk the high road (or should I say tight rope) and lead a life of despair or embrace the darkness, and await whatever death that lies at the end of the road. My, what cheery options I have.
Have I landed at the bottom of this pit? Or is there a lower level awaiting me tomorrow?

Far from grace,...

Nothing I come with, ‘cept this...
It’s been ages already, hasn’t it? The seasons have passed, and much has changed since you left.
10 years have passed; it has been a long journey of healing and acceptance. Life is a brief candle indeed, a vapour in the grand scheme of all things. I don’t think you would want another tear shed, do you? Time heals all wounds, so goes the adage, and salves the scars inflicted by life. So here I am, with nothing more than a token of remembrance.
Rest in peace

"but look,
I have brought myself home,
seasoned by confidence,
broadened by land and languages,
I am no longer afraid of the oceans
or the differences between people,
not easily fooled
by words and ideas"
