Heartaches – we all have to go through those. To have loved and lost is a story indeed we all would want to forget. However, till that happens, these lost love quotes can render some comfort.
There is love of course. And then there’s life, its enemy.

We don’t plan to fall in love, do we? It just happens, and when it does, it enchants you in its own magical ways. It doesn’t come with promises of forever, nor does it promise companionship even after death. If the journey does last that long, you can consider yourself to be among the few lucky ones. If it doesn’t, and if love is lost somewhere along this journey, you see no point continuing alone on a road that was meant for both of you. They say everything happens for a reason, and however bad this pain maybe at the moment, it will eventually go away and something new, something better will come out of it all. Until then, hold on.
