Hotaru no Saiden

This place has long since been forgotten. If there was any heartbeat of hope in those that ever came to this place, It has come to rest. I had visions of vivid and alluring photos postering these empty hallways. I wanted to breathe a spark of life and interest into my haven... But as time would have her way, I had not the need to come to this place for quite some time. A great deal has changed with my absence. I have moved to a place full of boiling sands and heavy heat. Traveled far across the desert... Deep into the southwest, Just a touch away from the beating heart of Mexico. Far away from those few friends. Far away from that terrible place of work. I miss the summer nights of crickets and blackness. Late evenings in that old deathtrap of a truck. A broken handle. Banging boxes filled with supplies of silver and wire and tools. Passing the streetlights of gold and red and green. Soft hiss of sprinklers that sprouted like angry snakes, Perfectly on cue at that late hour. There was nothing like the solidity of that friendship. And now.. Far away. I cannot seem to sleep tonight. My neck feels as though a hand of burning cement is grappling it backwards from my spine. My wrist begins to flare in sharp unpredictable waves of pain. It was not more than an hour ago, I was too foggy to remain awake.. But then this feeling crept over me. Nostalgia. I began to recall the past, very clearly and it has set me on edge. I should rest now, or try to. I have much to look forward to these days. Finally my struggle with my love, has finally settled. Through years of battling and posting and the many year far apart, we've finally found our way together. A cozy nest. Rakka and Mimei are here. Gizmo, has passed on to start her new life again. We have Aden, Lively and sweet, fire-brush kitten. Inari, our little fox dog. Okami, the golden dog prince. Amadeus.. Tail and hatred for me both encrusted with rust. And a lumbering tortoise with an eye for strawberries and hibiscus. A menagerie indeed. This is the moment I had longed for so long. The one I had struggled to gain. Nearly died for. Wasted away for. Lost my mind for. The time it took. Years! Finally, I am relieved it has all come together. In a few years, we can be legally joined. Though mentally, we're almost there. Life isn't without her flaws. Though, sometimes it feels.. What have I missed?
