Kintsugi is a Japanese technique where gold is used to repair broken porcelain and add more value to a previously broken piece and make it look beautiful.
I put together all the pieces that have fallen and broken. The small pieces of my heart are the hardest to put together, but not impossible.
It is a disastrous process, but in the end, everything can be repaired. Although there is a part of me that I still can't fix, and it is the part that is on the alert for everything and looks with distrust at the unknown. But it still has that spark of innocence that trusts that everything will be all right.
It is you who can repair yourself and become something more valuable and beautiful. No one else can glue you together. Only you are the one who can do it.
This is the first piece of the Talavera Girl series where I show how the process of healing after a toxic relationship can make you feel hopeful that everything will get better, but the trauma still keeps you alert and wary of love.
