Many who enter our lives
pass through without leaving a mark.
They may have once been important,
we might even have loved them,
but once they're gone, they’re gone.
But there are others who,
when they're gone, for whatever reason,
create a kind of emotional wound.
It’s as if a piece of the puzzle
that is us has been lost, taken.
This is the nature of a broken heart,
and we all know how difficult it is
to put broken things back together again.
For most people, it feels truly hopeless.
But, fortunately, it's not.
If we’re lucky, and resilient,
we eventually find someone
who fills that void within us again.
And, miraculously, we're just the right shape
to fill an emptiness in their lives as well.
Stranger still, once the two puzzles are joined,
it creates a larger, more beautiful whole.
That’s the magic of love.
