Fate. Redemption. Guilt. Resentment. Loss. Pain. Struggle. Sacrifice. Happiness. Love. Freedom. Took me forever to edit it, and that's all because of the end. Around the time where it says "la mia bella ragazza" and "sempre" IT'S BOTHERING ME! But hopefully you guys like it. THANK YOU, KHARIZZMATIK. Without whom, I would still be an ignorant 13 year old. She's changed my life with Emancipation Proclamation! I can't believe it's over!
