Because There Is Something Inside You That Made You Keep Trying Despite Everyone Who Told You To Quit. You Built A Cast Around Your Broken Heart And Signed It Yourself, You Signed It They Were Wrong.

And You Are Worth The Time It Takes To Take The Time To Get To Know You. We've Managed To Muttle Through The Awkward Stage Of I Like You And You Like Me, But When We Both Finally Said 'yes' Life Became A Multiple Choice Test, Not Knowing Anything We Became Each Others Best Guess.
