the gift of a heart

When you give your heart away to someone, and things don’t work out, you don’t get your entire heart back…but isn’t that the point? 

Today I got told by someone that they don't believe that I was given my entire heart back from an ex...so it got me thinking...

A heart is not a gift that you give away with the slightest of care. A heart is a gift you give with careful consideration. A gift that you hope that person will keep and protect for the rest of their life. So why should you expect the entire thing to be given back to you when the decision is made to return it. No, you will always leave behind the smallest amount of it with them…after all, it was theirs too.
