I never could imagine death
Until I felt what it was like to live
After giving my heart away and being left empty.

I never realized what it meant
to give someone all of yourself
until I tried to take some of the pieces back.

I never could imagine love
Until I felt what it was like to have
Someone give me their heart and being made whole.

I never realized what it meant
For someone to give me all of themselves
Until I had to give some of the pieces back.
