Here I am
Sunday night
It's been 45 hours and 20 minutes
Since I last saw you
Not that I'm counting or anything...
I'm not a stalker either....
I'm just looking for the perfect words
To tell you that I love you
But how can I do something like that?
When you love another
When you love my best friend
I don't want to hurt her
I don't want to break you
It's kept me quiet for a month
I've silenced myself while you're there
But here I am
Looking for those perfect words
I love you
Just doesn't seem like enough
I need you
Sounds too obsessive
I want you
Sounds like I only want one thing
I like you
Sounds like I'm five years old
I don't know
What those words
Those perfect words could possibly be
So here I am
Searching
For those
Perfect words
Author notes
Mainly it explains itself. I've fallen in love with one of my friends. Who pretty much the same day as I realized that I liked him told me that he liked my best friend. But I don't want to give up on him. If anything I just want him to know.

..well thank you for this, I understand a situation like that is frustrating and hard to express out loud. Also thank you very much for following the rules! Good Luck!
