"BRAIN vs HEART"

[LavaLush]

Brain : "Delete the contact."
Heart : "What if he texts someday?"
Brain : "Delete the pictures too."
Heart : "Those r memories."
Brain : "Those r wounds u keep reopening."

SILENCE.


Brain : "Just delete the chats. The voice notes. The late night Convos u reread when you miss him."
Heart : I am not ready."
Brain : "You'll never heal while holding onto someone who already let go."


PAUSE.


Heart : "But I Loved him."
Brain : " I know."
Heart : "What if nobody understands me lyk he did?"
Brain : "Then let someone new try someday."


SILENCE.


Heart : "Moving on feels lyk betraying what we had."
Brain : " Nope. Moving on is finally choosing urself after begging someone else to choose u for too long."

MY EYES BURNED.


Heart : "But the pain still feels real."
Brain : "The pain is real. But so is your future. Not everything you lose is meant to destroy you."
Heart : " Then why does it hurt this much?"
Brain : "Bcs some lessons arrive disguised as people."

PAUSE.

Heart : "What if I never stop loving him?"
Brain : " May be you won't. Someppl leave fingerprints on you soul."
Healing is never about forgetting.
Its about remembering without breaking.


SILENCE.


Heart : " I wish he knew how much this hurt."
Brain : "May be he does. May be he doesn't.
"But ur pain does not become less real just bcs someone else cannot see it."


MY CHEST ACHED.


Heart : "I gave him everything."
Brain : "I know."
Heart : "And he still choose to hurt me."
Brain : "I know."
Heart : "That makes me feel lyk I wasn't enough."
Brain : "NO. It means you gave ur everything to someone who couldn't hold it."



THE SILENCE LASTED LONGER THIS TIME.


Heart : "I don't want to let go."
Brain : " You don't hv to let go all at once. Just stop holding on so tightly."
"Some good byes r not a choice. They r simply the moment when lyf asks u to choose urself."

Heart : "Will I ever be okay?"
Brain : "Not today. May be tomorrow."
"But one day you'll wake up nd realize his name no longer feels lyk a wound."
"Just a chapter."
Heart : "And what if I still love the memories?"
Brain : "Then love them. They are real to you."
" Just don't build a future inside a place that only exists in the past."


MY EYES FILLED WITH TEARS.


Heart : "I hate that I still care."
Brain : "You don't hate that you care. You hate that caring changed nothing."

Heart : "Will he ever know what he did to me?"
Brain : "Maybe. But healing begins when you stop waiting for the person who hurt u to be the one who finally understands your pain."


Heart : "That's harsh."
Brain : " No . That's truth."


Heart : " So what do I do now?"
Brain : "Grieve. Cry when u need too . Miss him when you do."
"Remember him if you must. But keep walking."
Heart : "Even with all this pain?"
Brain : "Especially with all this pain."


A LONG SILENCE SETTLED BTWN THEM.


Heart : "I still love him."
Brain : " I know."
Heart : " So what now?"
Brain : " Now you learn that loving someone and letting them go can exist in the same sentence."
Heart : " That hurts so much."
Brain : " I know."

Heart : "So what now?"
Brain : "Now you love urself enough to leave the door closed."

ONE FINAL SILENCE.

Heart : "I am tired."
Brain : " Then rest."

The conversation between the brain and the heart is something many of us have lived through but rarely put into words this well.

My favorite part was the reminder that healing isn't about forgetting; it's about remembering without breaking.

Sometimes letting go isn't a sign that the love wasn't real, it's a sign that we are finally choosing ourselves.

Beautifully written and painfully relatable.

Let it Hurt,
Let it Rest, and
Finally Choose Yourself.

 

[COFFEE☕]

Cry! Cry yourself to sleep;
Feel the pain, feel the emotions;
Get numb, heal, wake up and love yourself.

It will take hella time. But you will be okey! If you don't go in loop mode. ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯

 

[Honey bunch]

The brain may sleep, but the heart never truly rests.

So take care of your heart, and don't let it be hurt by someone who doesn't value how precious it is.​

Hello and good evening Ms. Very well written as always. This situation comes across in everyone's life at some point of time. But one needs to be sensible and take a call. Fight or flight. It's not about heart or brain per say, it's about the individual, if you are a fighter or just confused in life. It's always better to take the higher road. No one is worth your peace of mind and by that I mean a relationship. Toxic relationships are the worst and not worth hanging onto. God bless!!! stay safe . Cheers!!!

Wow. Heart never lies but brain tells hard truth. Healing isn't a sudden switch; it's just letting your brain carry your heart until it's strong enough to walk on its own again.Take a breath, close the door, and just rest for now.
