Comment:
I'd fallen for a girl in January who was about to leave the country for 7 months to go travelling. She had someone else waiting for her so nothing was going to happen - but I made her a minidisc anyway. Had to borrow the MD recorder but I knew she was only taking a minidisc player with her.The title comes from the poem "Ulysses" by Tennyson:
"I am a part of all that I have met,
yet all experience is an arch wherethro gleams
that untravell'd world whose margin fades
forever and forever when I move."
I miss her from time to time.

Feedback:
Deep... very deep.
