We keep walking into love again, without cauterizing the wounds of our previous heartbreaks. This is why loving again feels like salt on open wounds. This is why trusting again feels like old deceit and betrayal exhumed.

Not everyone is okay with living like an open wound. But the thing about open wounds is that, well, you aren’t ignoring it. You’re healing; the fresh air can get to it. It’s honest. You aren’t hiding who you are. You aren’t rotting. People can give you advice on how to heal without scarring badly. But on the other hand there are some people who’ll feel uncomfortable around you. Some will even point and laugh. But we all have wounds. — Warsan Shire

Please leave format credit to 1986! Sometimes things come out of your mouth that you regret later on. Or no, not regret. You say something so razor-sharp that the person you say it to carries it around with them for the rest of their life. “

I want some kind of reminder that while wounds heal, they don’t disappear forever – I carry them everywhere, always, and that is the way of things, the way of scars.
Please leave format credit to 1986! Some words hit you like a tree branch slapping you in the face. And some words rip into your flesh, leaving scars so deep, they never completely fade. “
TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS. AND IF IT DOESN'T, YOU NAME THEM SOMETHING OTHER THAN WOUNDS & AGREE TO LET THEM STAY. Image is from tumblr, photographer unknown.
In a perverse way, I was glad for the stitches, glad it would show, that there would be scars. What was the point in just being hurt on the inside? It should bloody well show.
It has been said 'time heals all wounds.' I do not agree The wounds remain, In time the mind protecting its sanity, covers them scar tissue and pain lessens but it is never gone -rose kennedy
