The End
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
OK, first off I'd like to apologize to those whom I could have already mentioned this to in person today, they know who they are. But I didn't want to ruin their mood.
So, just the facts.
Eleonore and I last night (Thursday) decided that we are definitely breaking up.
I no longer like what Eleonore is, and I suspect she may feel the same about me. Neither of us feel like changing to become what the other person wants, we've tried that for too long and it just makes us unhappy.
Practically, we will probably remain living together for a while yet, logistics are always the most difficult part, especially for practical people like us.
I am going to try and treat Eleonore as a live-in housekeeper for now, to try to stop those little patterns of touch and word usage that imply a close relationship. But it's going to be hard to break those habits.
Don't feel sorry for me, there's very little change in my current state as far as I'm concerned, it just means I can stop pretending we're going to be able to fix this, and move on.
It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die
This is the end
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
