And here I am, in my most beloved situation. Here, I always dreamed of being. Years passed as I touched this scene with the tips of my dreams, with the edges of my desire. I felt it with all my passion, then closed my eyes to drown in it. I drowned so much that I thought my dreams would suffocate me, so I decided to awaken. And in a moment between the burning of eagerness and the sobriety of reality, my beginning was at his hands, more beautiful than any dream that had touched my longing in his absence.
