Your mind knows exactly what they did, has replayed it a hundred times, has built a solid case for why you should be over it by now.
And yet something in you still reaches for them in quiet moments, still softens at a song, still wonders if they think about you too.
How do you make your heart catch up to what your head already knows — and has it ever actually worked?
I think the heart is always the last one to move on 😅 even if your mind already know everything. Sometimes you don’t really stop loving them instantly, you just slowly get tired of hurting until one day it doesn’t hurt the same anymore.
ReplyDeleteMaybe because love is not like switch you can just turn off. Even if they hurt you, the memories and feelings were real too. I think healing is not forcing yourself to stop loving them, it’s learning to love yourself more little by little until they don’t take too much space in your mind anymore.
ReplyDeleteWhen you get older, you realize the heart has its own timing. The mind can understand the pain quickly, but the heart holds on to memories, hopes, and the person you thought they were. Time doesn’t erase it completely, but it teaches you how to live without needing the same love back.
