Hallucination of Memories

Staring at the digital rectangle, 

It's 2 am in the night, 

After mindless scrolling, swiping left and right, 

Some thoughts from the past appeared as blight. 

I started sweating, adjusted the AC temperature, 

Turned on the light and found everything cluttered.

Memories of my best friend flooded my mind, 

Late-night talks and laughter we'd always find. 

Through ups and downs, we stood side by side, 

An unbreakable bond, a source of pride. But life took us on separate paths, 

Leaving behind cherished aftermaths.

Now a responsible man, less emotional, they say, 

Navigating life in a more practical way. 

Still single, yet hopeful, in search of a soul to share life's pace. 

The echoes of past loves, fleeting and few, Each a lesson learned, helping me renew.

So here I am, in the quiet of the night, Reflecting on memories, both dark and bright. 

The digital glow fades as I close my eyes, Ready to face tomorrow, where new stories arise.
