I didn't notice it at first
We were friends
And nothing more
No extra feelings
Or meaningful stares at her when she's not looking
But then one day
We were sitting there
Just the two of us
And I realized
That I was looking at her
The way people who aren't 'just friends' do
I denied it
She was my best friend
I couldn't feel that way
She wasn't into me the way I might be into her
She couldn't be
I ignored it, hoping it was just my imagination
And days went by
Still just friends
And now we're sitting here again
Just us
Sitting next to each other the way just friends do
And I can't help but to wonder
What if we could be more?
What if she could feel the way about me
That I'm starting to feel about her
I could tell her
But no
I know she doesn't
So I sit here
Just friends with an amazing girl
Thinking about the way she makes me laugh
And smile
And happy
Like no one else can
And she doesn't know the effect she has on me
And never will
Because we're just friends
