“I don’t even know how many times I was betrayed… What I do know is how every betrayal affected me. And yet I still chose to trust others. I didn’t change, I didn’t shut down, I didn’t become cold.

“Sometimes, even when you lie to protect someone, it tears you apart. It breaks your heart because you carry the weight of every word you didn’t say and every truth you had to hide. You watch them safe, smiling, thinking everything is fine… while your own heart quietly breaks under the burden of your lies and the things you’re hiding. You know you did it for them, yet somehow, it still feels like you who has hurt them.”
