About This Quote

The rain is pouring, and you find yourself staring at the glass, trying to ascertain what you will do. The rain is a symbol of the problems that I have been through. That’s because this quote is talking about a time when the two of us were together, and as a result I was deeply hurt. But it turns out that both of us were hurt worse.

But, even though we both had been hurt, neither one of us let go of the other. That’s because we both loved each other so much that we couldn’t let go. How many times have you been told that you can be together but not be friends? This quote is a reminder that being together doesn’t have to mean being apart at all.
