Last night, we were all together, laughing, sharing joy, and having carefree fun. We drank like there was no tomorrow, setting aside our worries and immersing ourselves in the moment. It felt like only we existed on this planet, wrapped in the enjoyment of the now.
But as morning dawned and everyone left, retreating to their own lives, a strong sense of loneliness settled in. I found myself on the floor, tears blending with the remnants of my hangover, feeling the weight of this isolation. I wished, more than anything, that my friends and family would never have to feel this same loneliness. May they always be shielded from the emotions that I'm experiencing right now, lying here on the floor.
