I put my arm around her shoulder,
and tuck her against my side.
The heat of touching her,
has my heart aching again.
It's just like pain,
this pleasure I feel.
It's evidence of my shame
as my heart punches against my ribs.
'I love u' is what I'm dying to say,
and the things she says to me,
surely she must feel the same way,
but what if she thinks I'm just any other girl.
Closer to her, I lean in,
My heart throbs when our eyes meet.
She's confused again,
as my hand cradles her face.
She pulls my face to meet hers,
there's more flame in her lips,
fiercer, than all the others,
she sighs in my ear.
Our hands are in each others hair,
my heart is about to explode.
Her lips move to my ear,
and she can hardly breathe.
When I try to find her lips again,
she says, 'I'm sorry,
but friends are what we should remain...'

This has actually happened to me, and we're still just friends...
