A woman protects her heart once it has been taken for granted. She understands that love is not meant to be wasted in places where it is overlooked, nor is her devotion meant to be poured endlessly into hands that do not hold it with care. Her protection is not cruelty—it is wisdom. Her distance is not indifference—it is survival. When her heart has been taken for granted, she learns that guarding it is the highest form of self‑respect.
She remembers the beginning, when her love was unguarded. She gave freely, trusted deeply, and poured endlessly. Every gesture carried sincerity, every word carried tenderness, every moment carried hope. She believed that love was steady, that care was mutual, that effort was permanent.
