The thought escaped me

The thought I had just escaped me.
Technically speaking, this is just a cliche that lacks the proper meaning, especially since no thought can technically "escape" unless "escape" is a word defined in such a way as to incorporate into its meaning the types of events that may involve something becoming non-existent or suppressed in the confines of mental storage. By "non-existent" I mean that the "thought" itself has dissolved, so-to-speak, amongst the psychological processes occurring in a person's mind. Certainly the electrons and metaphysical particles that once composed the "thought" may still be in existence, but their organization is now such that it can no longer be deemed as a whole to generate the same results as the original thought.

Is this important? - That question will be answered much later for sure.
