Did You Ever Love Her?
Was there a part of her that you once embraced?Was there ever a time when your heart reached out to hers and held tightly to it?
Was there never real sentiment there?
Was it only an illusion cast by your pain and insecurities?
Was there ever a time when the thought of you together made you smile?
When “you” warmed your heart with the anticipation and excitement of what was to come?
Did you ever look back with regret once she was gone?
Did you ever wonder what might have been, had you only tried a little harder… waited a little longer… opened yourself a little more?
Did causing her pain ever make you question your decisions?
Did she ever matter in the equation of your life?
Do you understand…?
Do you have a clue…?
As to how she is hurt?
And does that matter to you at all?
She had only her love to offer you.
Only her heart to give.
Not a great scholar or person of wealth.
Only someone who loved you more than they could ever love themselves.
Someone who wasn’t quite enough.
Someone who still stands here, remembering the good, trusting in the person you were… and loving you still.
Someone who is very foolish…
But someone touched by so much love that time and distance seem not to fade it.
Someone who gave you a heart full of compassion and joy… and who hasn’t been able to claim it back… and isn’t certain it should be.
Did you ever love her?
Your friends tell her no.
Did you ever love her?
Her heart is calling out for answers… for if you really loved her…
Why did you go?
Why?
