If you gave someone your heart and they died, did they take it with them? Did you spend the rest of forever with a hole inside you that couldn’t be filled?
I’ve never lost someone I loved romantically to death, but I have lost someone to life—and I do think it leaves a hole that can’t be filled. That’s the point, in a way. But this quote also made me realize how much capacity the heart still has. Even after loss, there’s space for new love, new connection, and new meaning. The hole doesn’t disappear, but it doesn’t stop the heart from growing.
