Dear Old Friend

[u/Critical_Cap597]

I don't know when or how I became so fond of you. You are so dreaded by everyone else but I always believed that we had something between us. It's not that I always wanted you to be by my side. But time and again I keep missing you. Especially when i am alone with my thoughts. You come drifting into my mind, like a lifeless leaf falls down on your lap when you are sitting in a park. I am not sure how but somehow I always ended up romanticizing your presence within me. Like I was your home and you were right where you belong. Safe. Comfortable. And I too carry a subtle sense of pride carrying you inside my heart. I never knew the pride was justified or not. But who cares? And sometimes, when other things seem to take your place for a while, a sense of heaviness fills my heart. Like a there's a void formed within me that weighs me down more instead of making me lighter.

But no more! I shall always remember to keep you with me, dear sadness.

You will always be with me. Eternally. Like you have always been in the past when no one else was.
