Over-rated.
Fatigue.
Weariness.
It's always the same feeling after something exhilarating. Nothing actually feels happy and good after a while. I don't think such a thing is possible. And then, again.
The smiles, which gradually grow less and less frequent, which make the face hurt more and more toward the end.
Toward the end, the fatigue and weariness... of the same thing happening each and every time, is nauseating. It overwhelms the initial feeling of happiness and makes one wonder if it was really happiness to begin with.
Or simply just the feeling of joy impressed upon oneself by the others surrounding oneself.
I thought perhaps, maybe, just for once, you could put aside your aloofness and try again. But it simply turns out that I was wrong again.
