My heart felt a bit empty without someone to share it with. Still, I tried to convince myself that I didn't need anyone, that my words had only been a coping mechanism. But deep down, I was beginning to wonder... If maybe I did need someone else, even though I'd convinced myself otherwise.
My heart still felt hollow whenever I thought about the past month, during which I'd spent alone, and I began to question my own promise never to fall in love again.
I'd sworn I'd never fall in love again..
yet...
I was beginning to have doubts. Were my words really just a coping mechanism? Or was there something else lurking under the surface? I was beginning to have doubts; maybe my words had been less of a vow and more of an excuse.
And then a question crossed my mind..
Did I actually have the strength to keep this promise? Or did I just not want to risk getting my heart broken again? I felt confused and conflicted, my thoughts full of questions and doubts. Should I continue to hold to this promise I'd made, or was it time for me to let go?
After much self-reflection and soul-searching, I realized that I deserved to find happiness again.
I would take the chance, let down my walls, and find love again.
