Love, we must part now
This is not the greatest post to be making, but the time has come for me to check-out of Road Maps. I've been here since the start and had a fantastic time and some really great interaction, and it's been lovely to know you folks. I hope you won't be shy--friend me at my CDJ lemonadeandgin which I might even try to update one day--and will stay in touch.
I take Remus Lupin (hollow_moony), Aubrey Borgin (borginal), and José Carlos Gonzalez (jcgonzalez) with me. If you've a character who wants departure details for these boys, feel free to IM me at lemonade and gin or drop a comment here.
I leave you with a lovely poem by Philip Larkin and all my affections.
Love, we must part now: do not let it be
Calamitious and bitter. In the past
There has been too much moonlight and self-pity:
Let us have done with it: for now at last
Never has sun more boldly paced the sky,
Never were hearts more eager to be free,
To kick down worlds, lash forests; you and I
No longer hold them; we are husks, that see
The grain going forward to a different use.
There is regret. Always, there is regret.
But it is better that our lives unloose,
As two tall ships, wind-mastered, wet with light,
Break from an estuary with their courses set,
And waving part, and waving drop from sight.
