Missing someone while also recognizing the damage. It’s not clean, it’s not logical, and it doesn’t resolve itself easily. That contradiction sat with me long enough that I needed to translate it visually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"815\" data-end=\"1118\"\u003eThe anatomical heart felt important. Not symbolic in a soft or romantic way, but real—something functional, something that keeps you alive whether your emotions are in order or not. Wrapping it in caution tape wasn’t about shutting it down or protecting it completely. It’s not a barrier, it’s a signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1196\" data-end=\"1262\"\u003eBut the heart is still exposed. Still active. Still doing its job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1264\" data-end=\"1538\"\u003eThat’s the part I wanted to hold onto—how we don’t really get to turn feelings off just because we understand them. You can know something isn’t good for you and still feel pulled toward it. You can try to set boundaries and still carry the weight of what’s underneath them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1540\" data-end=\"1610\"\u003eThis piece sits in that space.\u003cbr data-start=\"1570\" data-end=\"1573\"\u003eNot resolved.
