Summary

This quote suggests that even if love is not reciprocated, it doesn't diminish or disappear. Instead, it continues to exist and has the power to transform the heart of the person experiencing it. Rather than becoming bitter or hardened, unrequited love has the ability to flow back, bringing healing and cleansing to the individual, making them more compassionate and understanding. In essence, love is portrayed as a force that never truly vanishes, but rather has the potential to leave a lasting impact on the heart of the lover.
