INVU, Part 2

The second half of INVU (2022) turns from wounded love toward recovery: a promise that a voice will stay unchanged, gratitude to someone whose embrace healed old hurts, a vow not to fall in love again, and a relationship watched to the end like a film in an empty cinema. The vocabulary pairs comfort words with the language of regret and relief, plus a handful of everyday adverbs for certainty and finality.
