It's strange how attachments work with people and their social relationships
For me, they're like threads being held by two hands..
These threads are the memories, the situations that brought them together and connected them with a tight bond
Distance can weaken these threads, like when you stretch one beyond it's tear strength.. it will reach a point where it tears into two
The tricky part is, when that happens, you normally would let go of the thread. But what if one person doesn't? What if one of the two is still deeply attached, and holding onto that thin torn thread for their life?
Heart break. The inability to move on, and the will to stand and suffer for the sake of being close to those we still love and are deeply attached to.
Years may go by, with that same person still holding on to the thread. But the rules of nature condemn the degeneration of the thread, so like it or not, it will turn to ashes one day.
Just like you have turned to ashes for them.
Just like we will all turn to ashes one day.. so be careful of the threads you hold on to.
One day, you'll wake up broken-hearted from the ones you only hold onto as the other ends drag behind you on the floor.
One day, your fragile heart will be tired and will not hold on to any threads anymore.
