Long ago
We were once best friends
Now you ignore me
And pretend
I don't exist
We used to hang out
All day together
But now you never call
And whenever I call
You never answer.
You were my best friend
You still are
I would give me life for you
Just so you won't have to feel
An ounce of sadness in your life.
And now you can't even say
Hi to me
I don't know
What I can do
To make you feel the same.
It hurts
To give my hopes up
That perhaps you'll e-mail me.
I don't think you understand
I'm in love with you
But in your eyes
I don't exist
I don't want this to be true
In my heart
I hope one day
You will love me to
But in the mean time
I'll sit here
Waiting for you.

Very sweet, I know the feeling. My best friend of seven years and I don't even speak anymore and it hurts so much, and while I don't have any romantic feelings towards him, I still love him like my brother. You captured those feelings very well. I like it.
