Empty

Ignorance is bliss, believe me. For I was once full, with what I thought I knew completely. Experience has taught me, that I know nothing actually. About love, and all it takes, mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. I gave it sacrifice, commitment and honesty. I gave it trust, dependability, and loyalty. I gave it kindness, with moments of vulnerability. I gave it tears, when it was thirsty. I gave it mind, body and soul, when it was hungry. I gave it intimacy, in times of privacy. I gave it my hand, and walked with it blindly. I gave to what I found, unaware that it could be lost so easily. I gave, but it takes two, anything less is fallacy. I gave it my all, and now I'm just empty.
