Wow, this is absolutely haunting! (No pun intended, I promise). I can resonate with this and it makes one ponder how memories just appear and make us feel so debased at times. It goes hand in hand with what personally haunts us, our own ghosts.
This is communicated eloquently in your piece, as well evocatively. Beautiful, impactful writing.
Why thank you for your kind words Lucy. The ghosts of our lives follow us like our shadow and only withdraw when the final light goes out…
“I was just somebody else, some stranger, and my whole life was a haunted life, the life of a ghost.” ~ Jack Kerouac
