the future has never been clear to me, but one thing remains certain – this undying love i hold for those who share this world with me will burn as fiercely as ever
let us cast away our differences as though we were shedding our collective skin, and foster a new hope
in all of the nights when sleep was but a long-lost dream, my sense of wonder has yet to be eclipsed
how capable we are, how mighty…
brimming with talent unparalleled,
bursting with affection for those around,
instilling new life in places it had yet to reach
this is the hope i choose to hold onto
i shall cling to it ferociously, lest it slip away
and when my strength has waned,
it will be my brothers and sisters who spur my weary spirit forward
all of these boundaries and differences we have surrounded ourselves with are but petty illusion
alas, they could never withstand the might of our convictions
breathe deeply, my kin, for the path to our destiny will be hard-fought
but if there were ever a goal worth reaching for, worth stretching to our limits and beyond,
it is this one
rest gently, for tomorrow we start anew
finding peace was never a trivial pursuit, but a promise
a promise i intend to see through
