Was I better than she is?

Варвара Костерецкая
Was I better than she is?
I used to try to make you smile,
I used to make you more than you could be,
But now you're hers, not mine.

I used to laugh when you told jokes,
I used to sympathize when you felt pain,
I used to be the Sun when you were sorry,
And when you were aflame I was your rain.

I felt what you felt,
I listened to you when you was talking,
And when I looked at you I used to melt,
You were my goal for what I struggled.

You were my only love behind your traitor's mask,
You used to be my savior, my aim, the all of me.
But now the only question that I ask -
Was I for sometime better than she is?
