Better to have loved and lost then to have never loved at all?

Is this statement really true? What's so great about a broken heart? What's so great about lying awake wondering if it was your fault that it didn't work or that it was not meant to work out no matter how much you may have tried? What's so great about a pillow dampened with your tears? What's so great about missing someone and you don't know if they even are thinking about you? Does one really ever let go of love? Is it ever really lost or does it just linger in your heart making you unable to function? What is love?

Love is one of those things that no two people will tell you the same meaning. I think that it took me turning away from love which was staring me in the face to realize just what it was. By the time this realization had come about however, I had done some things that couldn't be taken back. All I can do is ask for forgiveness and hope that love will give me a second chance. If one's tears could measure love then mine for this particular person is endless! I've have even learned the art of crying without any of my co-workers noticing, partly thanks to cold season. Do our mistakes make us stronger? I believe so. Sometimes it literally takes an act of God to open your eyes and see what has been there all along.
