Tainted passion

By forgetmenot

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I see you look at her, the same way you look at me. I see you treat her the same way, and I know you know I see. You tell me not to wait up, cause things wont work out now. You basically say, "forget about me" but i just dont know how. There are so many reasons that we cant be together that I know. Im just worried that if I redirect my affections, I will turn around regretting I let you go. You say "maybe later..." but do you think our feelings wont grow stale? Do you think that if we are together my and her friendship will fail? I know you like her, but do you love her so? Please tell me the answer now, I really think I should know.... Please dont stoop to sharing beautiful complements and shower me with compassion. Because I know that all you are doing is tainting this beautiful passion. *alithis is a poem about a guy i am dear friends with... we both admitted we cared for eachother, but we didnt do anything about it. my best friend has felt the same way about him for a while, and he admitted he cared for her to, though not as much as me.....(?)He told me maybe in a while but i dont know......I am working on redirecting my feelings on someone else and things are going well, so maybe things will change, but he and i both know i cant hurt my friend like that.
