“In every heart there is a room,A sanctuary safe and strong,To heal the wounds from lovers past,Until a new one comes along”

“Some wounds won't heal until they're seen through a lover's eyes.”

“The flow of time cleanses the past and heals the wounds in people's hearts. But there are wounds we cant speak of.”

“When one lover suffered from a broken heart, no matter how badly the other wanted to help, she couldn't be the one to heal it.”

“Are you healed? One sure way to tell if you've healed from your past pain is to be aware of how you feel when someone brings it up. Are you anxious, sad, emotional? If you are, the wound has not completely healed. But if you can hear a name from your past, recall a memory without flinching, then you know that your scar tissue is protecting you and that inside you're healthy and strong again. It's a wonderful feeling to feel nothing at all when your hurtful past doesn't hurt anymore.”

“I can see it, Ed, I leaned deeper into you, felt you nodding along with the sounds in the room, and your warmth signaled through to me from under your shirt, lovely strong, safe and right.”
