Perhaps a 𝚙𝚑𝚊𝚗𝚝𝚘𝚖 𝚙𝚊𝚒𝚗 that arises as you are brought back in memory to a most wondrous moment, it’s the greatest moment you can remember,
And knowing it’s already happened somehow makes it gut-wrenching
Perhaps because subconsciously you understand you’ll never get to go back there,
to that exact moment again,
It couldn’t ever be so perfect.
It aches like arthritis to the core,…
feels something like a a deep and buried permanent bruise of the bone.
It’s just going to be there,…
It becomes a “normal” feeling in time,
And then you wonder, only now that it’s brought to the light and attention,
Why is that normal?
Is this something everyone experiences or is it just me?
It’s pretty WEIRD that feeling that empty, full, bruised, soothed, aching deep within that accompanies moments of nostalgia or looking back on wonderful irreplaceable moments,….
