"Do you still care about him?"

As easy as a breath the truth came from my lips
as easy as a heartbeat I spoke

admitted how your memory still lingers
not because of a book
or hope
but because you accepted me
for me

Never asking for change
never demanding modifications
never asking anything
but to be loved the same

And we loved
through the nights we loved
through the ups and downs
through the hell we raised
through the peace we shared
we loved

So when asked a simple question
not a moment later the word came from my lips
so soft
but so powerful

"yes"
