you told me to let go of my hopes,
to give up on us.
but i wasn't raised that way.
if you really want something,
you give it everything you have -
no matter how much time,
patience,
or heartache it takes.
so here i am,
apologising to you.
as long as my heart beats for you,
as long as i live to be by your side,
and as long as my mind sees you in my future,
i will keep fighting -
for you,
for us,
no matter how long it takes,
no matter how much patience,
no matter how many disappointments.
