Being in love Quote by Ritu Ghatourey
“We are not lovers because of the love we make but the love we have. We are not friends because of the laughs we spend but the tears we save. I don't want to be near you for the thoughts we share but for the words we never have to speak. I will never miss you because of what we do but what we are together.”
