Time Heals

I remembered breaking up with someone years ago, with a reason that kept on haunting me each day, "Because you're just too much to handle. I can't live with that."

For three months straight, I thought the agony was painfully endless and terminal. I thought nothing else in the entire universe could lessen the grief I was stuck into. Then few months after that, I went for a drink with my peer. At the bar, I met this friend. All throughout the night, our conversation just circled around our past failed relationships. I even remembered him saying, "But don't worry, time would heal your burden. Because that's just what it is, time heals."

But it has been many years now and I saw my love with another girl. And it still felt like a sudden falling meteor that crashed my world. Still. I cried so hard until my heart flashed complete exhaustion. Yet the emotional torture upon seeing them together still felt like the first time and it was as if I'm running breathlessly in an endless circle path.

They say time heals.

But you know what's the truth? Time doesn't heal anything; it only helps your heart get used to deal with the pain.
