It is better to love and lost and than it is to have never loved at all.
Sometimes, I wonder if that's so true. Having heartbreaks, breakups, rejections are the worst feeling in the world. But one could be said about never feeling love at all.
A special person you shared love with, you gave your heart and used up so much of your time...... you truly wonder how that person is doing now, now that they are gone.
They could be having a new life, a new lover, maybe they forget about you, maybe they're dead and enjoying the afterlife ( or worse ) or maybe just maybe......they still think of you.
Love never dies, one could cheat, abuse, hurt, leave, betray or die but still......you still love them.
When you see their old pictures, when a thought of them pops up in your head during a shower or a long drive, when a song plays that was once their song, when a movie plays that you used to watch with them, when you see a car that looks like the model they had...... you can't help but wonder, what might have been.
Is the human heart capable of more love? Could you have a hundred exes and still love the next person as if they were your first? Could you have only one breakup and never love the same again? I have no idea.
Sometimes, that love is a lie. Not a lie you chose but what they chose. Perhaps you loved someone's fake personality, until they show you who they really are. Perhaps you loved someone so much until you realized they had cheated on you the entire time. Perhaps you loved an idea of a person you never even dated, who doesn't even know your name.
Time does not heal all wounds, it just makes it more bearable. Just like when you break a leg, the leg is never the same as before........when your heart breaks, you are never the same as before.
Should one continue to love? Should one shut out and shut down, become cold and never love again? That's up for you to decide.
But in the end, we all deserve love. It's not fair the kind of love we get from this world is always conditional and temperary.
Even your parents stop loving you once they die, if they ever loved you at all.
Do the best you can with what you got, love is hard but for the lost lovers out there, you will find it again.
You will find it, again.
