In the beginning....
Really he wasn’t sure when it was, that moment of clarity when it clicked and he knew for the first time off his true feelings.

Since this realisation many full moons had passed and the days seemed to blur into one another.
But one thing was certain, life just wouldn’t be the same again.
Finally that awakening had come, after trying to ignore it and fight it the inner turmoil had finally subdued and gave way to his true feelings and desire.

Running his fingers over his face and along his chin, closing his eyes for a moment to take in his surroundings, a deep breath to let out a sigh as he gathered his thoughts.

How can one possibly overcome the adversity of it all... either way it was just simply about moving forward.
One day at a time.
It had seemed insurmountable, the way forward.
But a fire was burning again. It is perplexing how the mind can play such a pivotal part in dealing with matters of the heart..
A wise man once said that once something is a passion the motivation comes easy and naturally.

That is what had been lacking. Motivation.
It was back now.
A darkness finally lifted and no longer the shroud of emptiness and unfulfilled promise clouded the ability to find ones happiness and self worth. A sensation like it would feel as if you are crawling along the hot sand with the sun bearing down and you struggle to move forward, parched lips and weak limbs then suddenly you glimpse water and suddenly find yourself with renewed vigour and adrenaline curses through your veins and you keep moving forward. That is the feeling.

But this daydreaming had to stop, a need to focus on the task at hand. Time was slipping away quickly, soon the first light of dawn would rise up like a beacon in the fog of winter. Knowing now little time remained.

Perhaps his chance had slipped past, unsure if the opportunity would present itself again. Boldness.
Needed to be bold if it did.
Frustrating thoughts now clouded the mind when a need to remain sharp was paramount.

Shaking the head to wash away the thoughts as now it was imminent.. minutes remained.

Deep breaths now, relax the muscles and try to focus.

The moment nears...
A thought emerging..
Would he see her again? Her smile. Her presence. Her touch.

A ray of light creeps over the horizon as the last morning star begins to dim..
Finally at the precipice..
The answer will be known. The path taken.
The will to evolve, grow and.....

Fade to black............
