Did You Ever or Did You Not

Did You Ever or Did You Not

Did you ever truly love me

Or simply fear goodbye

Did you hold me for comfort

While feeding me your lies

Did you ever miss my voice

When the nights became too long

Or replace me in a heartbeat

Like nothing had gone wrong

I replay every moment

Trying hard to understand

How someone could say forever

Then vanish without a hand

Did you watch me slowly breaking

Did you hear me cry alone

Did it matter when you left me

Standing frozen like a stone

Some questions stay unanswered

Like smoke without a flame

Still burning through the silence

Every time I hear your name

Maybe love was never honest

Maybe truth got lost somehow

All I know is who I was then

Is not who I am now

The mirror shows a stranger

Eyes darker than before

A soul once full of wonder

Now locked behind a door

So tell me if you meant it

Every promise every touch

Did you ever really love me

Or was I loving too much
