And climbing to the top. To throw myself off

Looking forward - who wouldn't do?. The role I was about to play

I remember I cried when my father died. Never wishing to hide my tears

Couldn't understand why the only man. She had ever loved had been taken

Leaving her to start. With a heart so badly broken. Despite encouragement from me
