Truth Is

Just the other day she asked me
did I still have feelings for you,
I admit, that off a guard she did catch me
that I did not know exactly what to say or do.
But the truth is...
even though six years ago you broke my heart
right now today you still have a special place in my heart.
Truth is...
even though I managed to get over you
I found myself still being captivated with only memories of you.
Truth is...
you were the very first love that I had ever known
that was why it was so hard for me to accept the fact that to someone else you 
had moved on.
Truth is...
I was so angry that I actually tried to hate you
but I found that it was hard even for me to do.
Truth is...
I done just about anything to try and keep you
because during that time I had been just that deep in love with you.
Truth is...
I thought there would be not another man that could take your place
and put a smile on my face.
Truth is...
I thought you were made for me and I was made for you
and we were going to start a life anew.
Truth is...
it had taken me some time to see
that even though our love was special, it just was not meant to be.
Truth is...
I learned it was best to just let you go
so you could be with someone else that loved you more.
Truth is...
I am glad that you are finally happy
and I am glad that I am finally happy.
Truth is...
my love for you is that of a friend
nothing else more, nothing else less just that of a friend.
