New Sadness
21/February/2024 in Tokyo
No matter how regretful or painful or sad it is now,
these senses will become smaller, as time goes by
I know this from my experience
.........well, everybody knows this from their experience
When we look back from the future,
it all looks smaller
Feels less regretful,
less painful,
less sad
than it used to be
Sadness lost its sharpe acute edge
which is nice
But somehow this "discovery" brings another sadness
Some kind of "new ache" runs one's body
Because it can feel like;
Our emotions towards this subject, that originally brought the pain, became smaller in us
Our attachment with this specific event lost its significance in us
Our memories with this particular person faded in us
Again, it's nice overall
We don't have to feel pain for an unnecessarily long time
But sometimes,
this feels another sadness
New sadness of forgetting old sadness
