BestFriend
Did you know that I was in love with you
No really
Did you know
I say did because this love has now become past tense
So all I can do at this point is reminisce
About us
Well maybe not us because there has never been an us
More like you and I or me and you always separate never together
Mentally
We became friends by default
Connected on a level so deep that even when you weren't near me I could still feel your hand on my knee
As you kissed me on the cheek
Telling me things like best friend there's no you without me
The times you called me on the phone just to say how's your day
Or the times we would sit and laugh watching Martin and dancing like Kid and Play
Cuddled on the sofa your head on my lap
Running my fingers through your hair
You seemed so relaxed
The times we would lay and I would give myself to you
Wake up the next day
Reality times 2
I was in love with my best friend
I thought that we were the exception to the rule
You know men and women can't have sex and still be friends
I guess that part was true
The times you would call me and tell me about chick 1 or chick 2
How I would give you advice but inside I was crying
Joking and laughing, tripping yet dying
Laying with you at night but in the morning I would pretend
Act like I didn't care
To afraid to tell you how I feel
Valuing your friendship
I put you before me
Then one day you called and took my hope from me
'I'm in love and I'm going to propose to her '
Were the words you spoke
A moment of silence
I lost my voice
My heart sank into my stomach
I said "Congratulations Best Friend"!!
I wanted to tell you
I needed you to know but what would I say
"Please don't let her take you away"
What if you didn't love me back our friendship would be ruined
You didn't want me
Years of friendship and you still couldn't see
I loved you
Why did you never love me back
Not the kind of love that you have for your best friend but the love you have for your soul mate
Two devine beings becoming one
I wanted that with you
Yet you only knew her for a few months and this is what you do
What about me
I have always been down with you
I tried to make you see
I wanted you
I needed you
I wish you would have saw me
Not physically but mentally
Look at me
Stare into my eyes
Feel my soul
Best friend
Best friend
How could you not know
I love you

Pure agony. He was without any far reaching vision or perhaps didn't care one way or the other. Maybe you could write this relationship up in a short play. Would like to hear the dialogue.
