Deep love Quote by Daniel Neuhaus
“If I would have been there I would have done something about it. The last thing I would have done is watched and pouted. I endorse my compelling nature to protect you. I find it hard to accept the fact that I could lose you at any time and I wouldn't be able to make do. My life would be literally torn. I may regret my being born. If I were to lose such elegance, I don't know if I could make do. Just as my body would turn to ash without water, so my brain without our clash of love would deteriorate and falter.”
