Courage.

I was falling for my best friend,
A fact he didn't comprehend.
With each and every passing day,
My hopes would further decay.

I tried to tell him a few times,
But that's hard to do sometimes.
So I hid it, and friends we were,
Until he started to look at her.

This would be my last chance,
I had to make an advance.
Homecoming dance was coming soon,
So I asked that afternoon.

Will you go to the dance with me?
I couldn't believe he actually agreed.
He had a crush on me also,
But was scared to let me know.

After the dance, by a few days,
He asked me out, to my amaze.
We're still together, going strong,
A year and a half, it's been that long.

Be brave and tell him how you feel,
He may be shocked by this reveal.
But if your feelings are true,
Together may be you two.
