"is It Real?"

Is it real are the words I read...
Through the highs and the lows 
I stayed to see...
When we were confused we 
held each other through the night..
If life was tough I did my best to make
it bright..
When you were scared and shaken
I comforted your wounds...
I wrote for you to soothe you
and lift you from the ruins...
Is it real are the words I read...
You must know if you have to ask
how sad that makes me...
