Empty.

Sometimes, when old friends drift apart, you feel powerless, lost, and cast away. 
And when you don’t even know why they leave, it makes you upset and hurt.
Then they come back, if only for a little while, and things seem right again.
But the world is a stage, and we are its actors, and actors hide behind masks.
So when you strip the actors of their masks and they don’t have anything left,
the person you thought you once knew is gone.
You feel empty inside.

  1. Sometimes what life affords us is time.

    Remember the Eraserhead's song, Minsan.

  2. Because we hold on to certain things. And when they start to falter, we get disappointed.
