It is naught but pain and regret when we think of the things and people we will never have, the opportunities we may never get. But to pine for those we have had and loved and once held but will never clasp again, it is torture of an unbearable degree. It is the worst pain possible. Enough to drive you away from yourself... Kelly Creagh
About This Quote

The greatest pain is the pain of loss. It is as if we were dying and losing our very life. We put ourselves through all sorts of mental and physical torture because we know that one day we will die and we will lose those we love. The true pain of loss is not the physical pain but the mental agony to miss those we have lost.
