glass heart

The way I love you is special just because I have a heart like glass. When I saw that at the end of the film, the dead witch gave her heart to the vampire~ I think she wanted to express this. I always thought that the endless hurt was because of possessiveness, but in fact, you didn't realize that behind the deep hurt, there was a kind of loneliness that was afraid of losing. The beloved treasure is afraid of being taken away by others, so it can only be guarded deeply. Even if you are turned into a monster and locked up, it is because you want to keep in touch with you forever. In fact, vampires love witches, maybe that love only stays in the body, but just like Faye Wong sang in "Boring", whoever says that a lover must love his soul, otherwise it will sound insincere. Even physical pleasure is a kind of love. What's wrong with the witch's determination of this kind of love? The biggest tragedy of the whole play is that the witch dies for love, and she can't get the approval of the vampire until she dies. Everyone lives in the shadows, everyone has their own dark side of life, but why the witch is the last victim, it is because she loves stubbornly and loves to the death, so it is hated by people, I think it should be, because People who won't let go usually don't end well, but I still sympathize with her, a sad woman whose heart was broken in the end, for a man who didn't love her, for a vampire who hated her to the bone...
