Now.

I am that I am.

The power, the vision, the prospect.

I am the vision of success that I demand of myself.

I am the Uniter, the bringer of Light.

Revel in the shadows of the soul, for they are long.

The brightest of lights cast the deepest of shadows.

I am the Despair for the courageous. I carry that burden with terrible knotted shoulders.

I am the Hope of the fallen. My dreams carry the long path forward into the looming Light.

I am the Mentor to the meek. My wisdom surpasses expectation and shines as a Lamppost through the wood.

I am the Path.

I am the Way.

I am the Answer to the questions proffered in the recesses of the night.

For through me can I achieve anything.

And for me,

Only

EVERYTHING

will do.

I tribute to you my faithful companion.

My closest friend and greatest enemy.

The time is nigh, and today is the day.

For all that I accomplish will be due to you and for you.

But today my friend.

Today you burn to the ground.

For tomorrow we will arise and not be foes any longer.

For now is the time to release you.

And now is the time for accomplishment.

Now is the time for change.
