Heart’s Grave: By the Time He Loved Me, I Was Already Buried

She spent the whole of her youth loving someone who did not love her.

She had only the title of Mrs. Fu, trapped in a loveless mansion until she became gravely ill.

He gave her indifference; she answered with tenderness.

He hurt her; she answered with silence.

He personally snuffed out her last hope, and at last she stopped looking back.

Only after she had turned to a mound of earth did he finally realize:

He had lost the person who had loved him with all her might.

One grave for a broken heart, and the rest of his life a prison.

By the time he loved her, she was already long asleep.
