Apocalypse now...

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes...again
Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need...of some...stranger's hand
In a...desperate land
Lost in a Roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane

Not quite the post i intended to start my new year with but nonetheless here goes..

The end of days and the end of life as we have known it for the last couple of years is here. 2 hours from now i'll be turning my back on these portals one final time as a student. It brings back images of various hues as i sit here on my computer with the familiar and comforting view of the campus walls laid out in front of me .. nights of euphoria.. nights of endless despair. Images of distorted reality.. images of exaggerated happiness and pain.

I take away from here a deep sense of awe at what a free mind can achieve when it decides to fly.. that we truly are a medium for ideas and all we need to do is be receptive . I take away friends with whom we have shared and experienced so much in the limited time that these 2 years afforded us .. I take back with me a deep sense of love and gratitude for someone a thousand miles away for deciding to stick by my side when no one else would have stuck on.

I really cant get words out that do justice ..maybe some other time.
