Please Don’t Make Me Go

What it does

Protest against departure when logistics are ready but the heart is not.

Use it when

  • A visit ends too soon.
  • A transition feels involuntary.
  • You are being pulled away from a beloved place.

For example

  1. The last ferry is called at the end of the island holiday.
  2. A child clings to the science museum railing at closing.
  3. Your final day in the old studio reaches the key handoff.
