The Words I Thought But Never Said

My Friend

I see you standing there by the classroom door,
I feel the pain in my heart grow a little more.
I knew this was coming, just didn't know when,
I knew you weren't content with being just friends.

I pretended to be oblivious, pretended I didn't see,
Pretended those little gestures seemed friendly to me.
Pretended I didn't feel guilty when you cooked me meals,
Pretended I didn't know exactly what you feel.

Though I tried my best to delay this day,
You have me cornered I can't run away.
You say those 3 words, confirming my fears,
Our eyes meet then your fill with tears.

Both of us are quiet, I don't need to say a word,
Just by looking at my eyes my silent sorry was heard
