my moment

Start the video before you begin:



Now wait...

Begin.

It is that unexpected overwhelming moment in which your mind clears out, in which the mist evaporates, and in which you are certain… My time has come.

How many times I heard your tone as a prelude to a farewell; and for how many.

The object of its meaning always changed. As people left, drifted away, they left me with my dreams behind, my soul begging for a chance, crippled, sleepless, trapped.

But now I heard it again and it overwhelmed me, it reminded me of the feelings, but it feels different. As people left, drifted away, left me behind, I was forever changed, and so were they.

It is that moment in which your insides shrink in an involuntary movement, your eyes close, your face changes color and a tear runs out down your face.

That moment, an unexpected moment of an announced redemption; long overdue, long desired and that feels just right.

A wonderful example of a moment of inspiration! And as I told you already, a very good choice of the video/song. Gives a new dimension to your text, and vice versa.
