But there&#8217;s one thing I still haven&#8217;t gotten used to: watching <strong>the women in my life<\/strong> come in, shine bright, create a connection, and then&#8230; disappear. My fault, their fault, nobody&#8217;s fault. It doesn&#8217;t matter. An ex you loved more than life itself and then&#8230; she sends you a certified email. Another lost girl you took in and tried to build a home with: she not only vanishes but tries to erase the memory. And finally, her. The one I&#8217;ll talk about in the next story.       <\/p>\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s be honest (like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/shorts\/Sc4OMAiybyQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ignazio LaRussa in Fiorello&#8217;s impression<\/a>): if there&#8217;s one thing I&#8217;m truly terrible at, it&#8217;s\u2026 letting go. I often think about all the people I&#8217;ve had a real connection with.<br\/>Today I peeked at <a href=\"https:\/\/tiredofboys.com\/en\/blue-tornado-the-right-tornado-at-the-wrong-time\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1826\">Tornado Blu<\/a>&#8216;s Instagram profile. A girl I met three years ago in Corfu, for just one week. And yet, in her own way, she still matters to me. Maybe that&#8217;s the whole problem: the inability to forget meteor women, the ones who cross your sky and then fade away.    <\/p>\n\n<p>I don&#8217;t know, I wrote that poem above, in one go.<br\/>Then I ran it through <a href=\"https:\/\/tiredofboys.com\/en\/interview-with-tano-my-romantic-jarvis\/\">Tano Bot, my sentimental AI<\/a>.<br\/>Which rewrote it like this:<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform: none; font-size: 1.4rem; line-height: 1.4; word-break: normal; overflow-wrap: break-word;\">Meteors according to Tano Bot (the AI version)<\/h2>\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-verse\">  They will come and I will have forgotten their names,\n the way I used to say them at night, alone,\n as if they were new words, never spoken before.\n\n  A light crosses the sky, and for a moment\n you believe it stopped for you.\n But nothing stops.\n\n  They are comets that chose\n to pass near my room:\n each one left a different scent on the sheets,\n a crease in the pillow,\n a silence that had never been mine.\n\n  I write to them, as one writes to the dead,\n with the care of someone who knows\n that the page doesn't answer,\n but at least it doesn't leave.\n\n<strong>Tano Bot, 2026\n<\/strong><\/pre>\n\n<p>Holy shit!
