People

People leave indelible marks on me.

With a propensity to focus and eagerly store (and randomly recall) some uniquely (unique to me) weird/insignificant/trivial fact wrt to some person, my brain outdoes itself frequently.

Cos when the people leave (go far away from me/stop interacting with me) they leave their marks behind. On my brain. And the recall is the worst part.

So vivid is the returned mpeg/jpeg from my brain about some incident/remark/mannerism of the absent person, that I'm left reminiscing and am in a reverie for a while, sometimes longing to meet them again.

But the ppl, they go. Should I be content with their memories? At the end of the day, are we all inherently rather alone, inside our minds?

Vacuum

Have you ever been so devoid of emotion, that probably the only thing you could sense in yourself, if you strained yourself, was this surprise about the fact that you were feeling so empty at that moment of time?

And ppl were walking about, around you, like you weren't there..

And at a socially agreed upon, conventionally happy event/gathering

Whats happening to me.....
