There are still people in my life who don't know I'll be migrating soon. Such a matter that has permeated my every waking thought, one would think, would have disseminated itself in a spirited and lively manner.Well, this self-appointed exile of mine has not caught the kind of traction I imagined it would. Contrary to the quakes and rumbles of my heart, maybe this diaspora is nothing epic.
People leave with a shrug. People disappear from our lives on a regular basis. Separation is casual.
It just so happened it's me leaving. And I've accepted that I won't be coming back. At least, not anyone recognizable. True friends would see otherwise:
They would not find me changed from him they knew--
Only more sure of all I thought was true.
Only more sure of all I thought was true.
And for each and every one of them, I've got plenty of goodbye's to spare--that, a quick hug, and the promise of remembering.
We live in a time that's both blessed and cursed. Blessed that there's no reason not to stay connected(I'm playing worded with friends with tj right now)- cursed that reinventing yourself is all the more harder.I remember it was tough for me, but I only had my whole life up to that point to prepare for it.I wish you good luck and good hunting! See you in your next incarnation, may the next danilo remain a youthful one, regenerations are tricky, you never know what body you're gonna get!When will you be back?
