Today, I am finally free of what used to be dead vine around my ankles. I remember how I would walk into the vision ahead, hazy and blurry, like the cold autum breeze after the sun has set, like the few damp leaves melting as I step on them, softening the edges of a dream, this dream that is the present moment. Today, I watch the eastern horizon fade as the sun sets, calmly, at my back. And I breath, without hesitation, the air of peace, the air of openness, the air of someday-real-love. Today, I smell the fireplaces as the dog plants two kisses on my cheek. And I look up at the dark blue sky and, today; Today, it's alright.
