Really, Truly, Honestly

I'm not sure what to write this time

But the words coming forth are mine

And even though I still feel dead inside

Things are coming to life in my mind

So maybe there's hope for tomorrow

Perhaps not all my days will end in sorrow

For I've found someone that will help me

Be a stronger person than I used to be

I'm pushing away all the memories of another

Even though we still say we love each other

He chose another over me, so I know

The love between us will never grow 

It is now forever doomed to die

Because of the choice he made, not I

I would have died for him if he needed me to

I said I loved him and he said he loved me too

So when everything I cared about fell apart

I knew all I had left was a broken heart

And then another came walking along

One who could help me again be strong 

Someone I'm scared will hurt me

But if I don't take a chance, I will never be

The happy person I once was with another

All we can do is find solace in each other 

And maybe someday I can say that I, too

Really, truly, honestly do love you.
