We pick at scabs of a bleeding heart because we don’t want time to carry on and allow the wound to heal and scar over, we wish to perpetuate, prolong, and preserve the last time they were close to us, before they walked away.

About This Quote

The heart is a powerful organ, and when it is broken it will never be the same. The pain of the breakup is so great it can take time to heal and scar over. The person who was once close to us may no longer be in our lives, and we wish to perpetuate the last time we were close to them. We pick at the scab of old wounds, wishing that we could bring back what we had before we injured ourselves.
