Is it Better?

Is it better to know you are loved by one you love, if life means you cannot ever be with that person?

Or is it better to go through life wondering if that love was ever really there, or just a figment of your imagination?

My first thought on this was, it is better to know and not wonder.  

Now my thought on this subject is that knowing makes it much harder to move on.  If you are just wondering, then you can go about your life and just think about it once in a while. 

Knowing ... well it can break your heart into pieces every day in so many ways. 

I keep telling myself it won't kill me, it will just make me stronger.  Maybe I'll believe that some day.
