I Broke When I Met You
Our hearts don't break when someone leaves our lives. It breaks the moment we allow ourselves to fall in love. In that moment, we take off the bandages from our already beaten and broken heart, lay them in the hand of another, and say 'Here are all the pieces of me. This is where I am broken.' We don't do this in order to be saved or fixed, but to share with another all the places within us that have seen new light. When we break, we allow in light to deeper parts of ourselves. To share our darkness is to share our light. To let a heart love, is to let a heart break. When we are perfectly broken in love, there is no heartbreak in leaving.
