~ want you

There goes another second I wish I'd spent with you,
I learnt it the hard way ; friendships cause heartbreaks too,
We lied to our minds saying we're just friends and nothing more,
But eyes don't lie, they hold so much more than we both know,
Memories are etched deep down in my brain, memories of me and you,
But friends don't look at each other the way we do,
Those late night calls, tear - stained shoulders of yours is something I miss,
Especially those moments we look at each other as if we're about to kiss,
I fell for you at the start, fell too hard beyond my self,
And you fell for me when I was someone else's,
Fate wasn't in our favour but I really wish it was,
I tell my friends, " I'd be his, if he asked",
I kept crying to myself saying I'd find someone like you,
But as time passed by, I realized that my assumption wasn't true,
We may not talk anymore like we used to, but I still care,
And being there isn't the same as belonging there,
A little part of me hopes to run into you and see your face,
But another part dreads to see you walking past me with another new face,
Everything has changed ever since the time you left me,
But half the time I wish you were right here talking to me,
I want you to know that I will always be here,
Regardless of the time, I'll always lend you my shoulders and ears,
I may not longer be a part of your life and you,
But just remember that I'd always want you.
