This is so so beautifully written. Your words capture exactly how I feel and was not able to articulate. When you lose someone you love you love beyond what words can express, it becomes harder to allow yourself feel that again out of the fear of you losing them too so yoh keep your distance. Something as greatly profound as this changes you in ways you or others who have never experienced this kind of loss will never fully comprehend.

Thank you so much for sharing this. I feel the depth of what you wrote — you’re not alone in that kind of guarded grief. It truly does change everything.
