Even the grandest of dreams could not compare to this feeling. Not even Eru himself could dream up something so wonderful. This bastion of hope that now lights my way through the darkness of this world.
Why has fate chosen to be kind to me now? When once all I felt was loneliness. I thought my fate decided, when all I loved fell to flames of darkness. I thought I would be forever alone. But fate is strange, and I find my heart being opened, though not entirely unwillingly, to one who might hold it hostage.
I do not get any younger, and the time passes by swiftly. Such joy and happiness has been a long time coming. I can not let it slip through my fingers this time. I must hold and treasure this feeling for the rest of my days.
This bright fire has blinded my heart to all but him.
Though the fire brings me no pain. All it brings is joy, laughter, and peace. He is a star up in the sky, left there to guide me.
I have visions of gentle smiles, soft embraces. And my heart sings. For once, fate has been kind. Fate is kind.
Some say that we are asleep until we fall in love, but when we wake up, it is as if life has begun anew. Is this then what life is supposed to be? I have been walking through the world for ages, not truly living.
Nor have I had a true home. But home is now closer than it seems.
