Ten,
To the stories that begin and never end,
To the ones who walk to the end of an endless tunnel.
To those who have hope in hopeless,
To the ones who walk forward.
Nine,
Not the moment when we met,
Not the place where we cried,
Not the teardrops of the rain,
Not the time you left me.
Eight,
Every day turns to night,
Every light withers to dark,
Every picture I see of you,
Every time, it comes back again.
Seven,
So much power you had at your fingertips,
So much control you had over me.
So much I gave up for you,
So much pain lingers in my heart.
Six,
Since that day you left me,
Since that evening in the rain,
Since the times of my control,
Since the teardrops in the rain, I have changed.
Five,
For every loss I made, I recover.
For every time I cried, the tears dry away.
For every moment I needed you, I stood again.
For all the times I had with you, I am better now.
Four,
Forever will I thank you for your love,
Forever will I thank you for breaking me down,
Forever will I grow with the thought of you,
Forever I never make the same mistake again.
Three,
Today, is the worst day.
Today, I see across the longest river,
Today, you come across again in my path,
Today, I see the sky fall yet again.
Two,
Too much.
Too many mistakes have been made.
Too much suffering have you dragged me through,
Too much love has been whispered to smoke.
One,
One chance to make it happen.
One opportunity to turn back the clock.
One moment can change everything…
I can’t.
A countdown never goes backwards.
Life never goes backwards.
