I linger on your every word...
But I also know that I am not the only one,
Since I am just the friend,
And she is who you love.
And I know you know what you told me,
That you love me to death,
Can't ever lose me...
But I am just the friend.
When I read that little bit today,
I realized something I did not want to.
You will love her more than to death,
You love her past eternity,
But not I,
Because I am just the friend.
No matter that my heart aches for you,
That I cannot even breath when I simply think of you...
And that kiss!
Oh, that unforgettful kiss.
But who am I kidding?
I am just the friend.
But I guess that it is no matter,
I would rather have you as my best friend,
Always a part of my life than not.
But inside I cry when I see you with her,
Because she has everything that I do not.
She is your true love,
The one that you will spend the rest of your life with.
And all I can do is sit here on the sidelines,
Watching as you live happily ever after with her.
Why?
Because I am just the friend.

this poem is about that same guy that i just keep writing all my other poems about... but today i got onto his myspace and in his about me part, underneathe the little bit talking about how i am his best friend in the whole world, he was talking about his girlfriend, and how he loves her with all his heart, and how he is going to spend the rest of his life with her and all this other good stuff... and even though this chick hates my guts, and i don't like her as well... i do wish her the best of luck, and i am happy for her... she gets him. she gets the love that any girl should deserve

Oh wow!! I feel your pain. Being just the friend is hard to do especially in your situation. It was a wonderful piece. Thank you for entering
