Were You Ever Real?

Were you ever truly real?

What of the love I did feel?

Doubts now cloud my mind,

As memories slowly unwind.

I felt your love every day,

But that feeling is slipping away.

Sometimes now when I think of you,

Instead of happy, I feel blue.

I thought our love was so strong,

Why did everything go so wrong?

You aren’t here to comfort me,

I was lonely as could be.

I thought that I might just give in,

Love and happiness could not win.

Someone else then found my heart,

Their radiant smile made me start.

To think that I could love again,

And happiness might soon begin.

One last time I ask of you,

Were you real? I wish I knew.
