I wish so badly we could be much more.
But it seems as though this is what God has in store.
Don't get me wrong you're my friend and a good one at that.
I know that for you I would do anything at the drop of a hat.
But here's the trouble she like you.
And she's my best friend too.
So I feel as though just a friend is all you'll ever be.
Even if I can picture life with you for eternity.
I'm the girl you asked to homecoming.
Being your date was overwhelming.
It's the most fun I have a had in years,
But when he ran out it left me in tears.
So maybe it's best if we stay just friends.
Because I'm still in love with him I can't pretend.
I just wish I could be with him in the end.
But I know that won't come true.
Especially since I've started having feelings for you.
But even taking you out of the equation,
He still won't talk to me on any occasion.
I love him so much sometimes it kills me,
How did he start to move on with such certainty?
But alas, he couldn't move on in the end.
And that's we call this the game of pretend.
"Aha", he said as his voice filled with fear.
"I knew in the end you wouldn't keep me near"
My legs shake as the night comes flooding back.
Just thinking about it gives me a panic attack.
But I hope in the end I can keep you at least as just a friend.

Non-FictionA collection of poems I wrote during and after my first relationship. I spent 5+ years working on this, and I apologize for any spelling/grammatical errors, but I wanted to leave everything as it was originally written.
