Someone once asked me if I still loved him.
And with all the things clouding up my mind at that moment;
All the chances I gave;
All the pain and hurt;
All the sleepless nights, and the tears I cried;
All the parts of myself I lost;
All the times spent with you;
All the feelings I felt for you;
All the laughs we shared, and your voice that still echoes;
All the memories we had, and the promises we once made;
All the life lessons you taught me;
All the times you made me feel worthy and pretty;
And the time I’ve accepted all that happened,
I gathered all my courage,
Looked at him in the eyes,
And utter with my most genuine smile,
“Not anymore.”
