Only A Friend

By Rainbowriter

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I get so weak in the knees. I can hardly speak. What do I have to do For you to notice me? I can't let it go so easily, I've never been this swept away. I can't describe the way it felt to hit the floor. Friends we've been for so long, But I have never been honest to you. You say you're in love; You just turn away. How can you love pain? I don't understand. I can't tell you how I feel. I'm only a friend, Nothing more. And if you fall the way I fell for you, Then you will see What you mean to me. I'm in to deep. There is no way out. I fear I'm alone... Written April 1st, 2002 © on Apr 01 2002 02:05 PM PST   18 • 0 • 8
