The Scars of the Mended Heart

The scars of a mended heart.. Remind us that although it's whole once more.. It will never be the same again..

Oh that splendid feeling of being in love and knowing that it was reciprocated.. There is just nothing quite like it..

"How sweet it is to be loved by you" becomes your favorite humming tune.. Every tree swaying and every star glistening spell out their name..

You stare at each other and profess love until the end with each batting of your eyes.. You hold each other close and breathe in the aroma created by the proximity of your bodies.. and even the energy released by your souls can light up an entire town..

Giving into the mesmerizing effects of this love, you expose your heart and let it fly freely like a hot air balloon.. If you are fortunate when you put your feet back on the ground, your lover will still be right beside you to take you on the next journey..

But if the hot air balloon suddenly malfunctions, there is nothing you can do to prevent the inevitable crash landing..

That is why when that surreal love suddenly breaks your heart, all that magic and bliss turns to sorrow and hurt. It's like an unexpected sucker punch that leaves you breathless and numb..

And as you start picking up the pieces of your broken heart, you wonder if it will ever be whole again.

The answer is, yes it will..

Time truly heals all wounds, but time also leaves a scar.. A scar so big, it changes the appearance of your once pristine heart forever.

Why couldn't such a beautiful heart remain intact..

Unfortunately after developing those scars in your heart, any individual that you let near it, has to zig zag their way around the closed wounds left by someone else.

And even though it is still one of a kind, the healed scar tissue hardened several areas and changed the aspect of what once was.. And sadly no one will ever get to see its original form ever again.

The scars of a mended heart.. Remind us we loved so intensely, it changed us forever.

Would you be able to love as intensely once more, perhaps... After all what doesn't kill you makes you stronger..

Bring it Universe!
