Friends
November 6, 2014The first time I saw him
I didn't think he was special
But months passed and I came to know
It was just because of denial
The cliché story took place
I realized he was more than a friend
The way he looked at me,
Brought my heart to believe in love's crazy trend
Days passed and I began to assume
Our relationship has flourished
It miraculously bloomed
Then, intimacy was present
And I began to ask
With the feelings both of us vent,
Was taking things to another level a necessary task?
So, I waited for him
It took me three long years
When he told me he wanted to say something
I said, 'I'm all ears'
'I'm in love with someone'
My knees became weak
I thought, 'Is this the moment,
To give our love some life-long tweaks?'
So, eagerly, I listened
To how he professed his love
In sincerity, his eyes glistened
And I started to acknowledge the pain that I felt all and above
"I'll be proposing to her,
As soon as possible"
I told him, "Congratulations!"
And my heart began to crumble
So, I buried my love for him
Kept it as a secret
Besides, it didn't really matter
Because his marriage was already set
Now, he's happily married
To the girl he fell head over heels for
Well, he's in love with my sister
The reason why we always had flowers by the door
Five years and counting...
Is the total time we had being friends
And that all of the feelings I thought we both had
Finally came to an end
