On this dark path I have traveled, I made sure to carve a swath where I could rest and reflect.
Even as my body has trembled to over-react, I have pushed aside the fear, in favor of what I could do.
May this time I gave to myself have been enough for what I am about to go through.
I dust off my shield, take a last look at the land that has grown to love me, and prepare for the worst – praying for a miracle to save me.
