Intermezzo IV. And so we have done it. We are now far ahead, in the distance where we could not picture ourselves at the beginning.

You will see the sun again and then the clouds and darkness shall come. And again. And again. It is a never-ending cycle that you will learn to tolerate and love. There is no point in fighting back.

Understanding is the reward we are trying to achieve with every step that gets hard, it’s easier to believe.

I am trying to solve this riddle of words on my own, yet I still feel that sometimes I miss something. There is a point to it all, but it’s so hard to make it seem so. There are many paths one can take. I, myself, don’t know what should I do with all this that burdens my heart.
