Nevermore

Some thoughts on being a nevermore, courtesy of Seasons Of Love.

It hit me for the first time that this really is the end. And weirdly, I'm okay with that. I miss the people there like crazy, but I do not yearn for CTY the summer program. I realized that most of my friends left last year and that it wasn't Jason Boring or Dane or Karen Weeks or any of those wonderful people that made CTY great, it was my personal circle of friends. Now there's a new era of those friends, and I won't be involved in that- I'm a relic of an era gone by. But that's okay. I cash out with Jackie and Danielle and Maggie and everyone that makes life worth living. I don't need CTY any more because it's already given me its greatest gift-the people I went through it with. However, that's not to I didn't feel a little pang of sadness up there, swaying to the dying final chords of Love and realizing this is indeed the end of the tour.
