for the words that have never been spoken.
for the promises that you have always broken.
for the kisses that took my breath from me.
for the 'youre gonna love me'.
for the tears that flowed.
for the sleepless hours.
for the break we have taken.
for the start that may never begin.
for the heart that keeps breaking.
for the strength that i have not showed.
for the ups and downs.
for the eleventh of june.
for the first of october.
