I'll be your best friend if it means
I get to talk to you every day
Know you better even through the pain
I'll be the person you can call to talk things through
As I said before don't let her slip through
I know you light up when she's in the room; it's this thing your eyes do
If it matters to you and you're too proud to say
I've never seen the pewter light up this way
If only she knew
The things I've learned from you
I wish I knew that day you before you grew from a breeze to my temporary everything
(You weren't mine to lose)
Everyone seems to have an opinion and I value them
I truly do
But it's never been me and you
I've tried getting over you
Almost there
But have you given a thought to me or us?
What we'll never be?
Or is it just air up there?
But I'll always be your friend and it's ok I never should've felt that or this way because you're more than what I knew
You've given ample opportunities
Showed me everything I knew but I'll just wait until I lose that small part of you.
(I wrote this a few months ago and edited it slightly hopefully it's not as horrible as I think Thank you for reading!)
