I know you're not mine, I confess,
Yet I fool myself, I must confess.
Into thinking being friends was good enough,
As long as you were in my life, I'd be tough.

But deep down, my heart yearned for more,
The longing for love, hard to ignore.
Your presence danced in my every thought,
A friendship's bliss, but true love sought.

Each moment we shared, my heart would soar,
Yet the ache within, I couldn't ignore.
For while I treasured our friendship's bond,
Inside, a love for you had grown so strong.

I pretended it was enough to just be near,
But the truth inside, I couldn't steer clear.
So, here I stand, baring my truth,
Knowing that you're not mine, sad but true.

A fool I've been, denying my desire,
But now, it's time to quench this inner fire.
I'll cherish what we had, the friendship true,
And hope one day, my heart will find its due.
