Beyond My Control

I was almost late to class,
and thought it was safe to run,
but I bumped into you,
that's how a friendship begun.

We grew closer and closer
as the years trickled by,
whenever you were around
I felt like I could fly.

Your girlfriends came and went
but I continued to be around,
and every single day, it seemed,
you lifted me higher off the ground.

After college you moved away,
we kept in touch for a while,
then you called one afternoon and said
you were going to walk down the aisle.

I came in just like you wanted,
and sat silently in the back
I promised myself I wouldn't cry,
but the build up of tears cracked.

I never told you how I felt,
in fear of what you would say,
I still regret that awful decision
and it gets worse every day.

I kept my mouth shut,
you were about to say "I do,"
suddenly at that moment
I forgot I ever flew.

I got up from my seat,
took off my heels and ran,
you immediately followed,
this was not part of the plan.

I finally told you the truth,
all you did was go back inside,
this is exactly what I was afraid of,
I started walking away and cried.

I heard the door open,
I started to fly once more,
you got down on your knee,
and I started to soar.

Meeting you was pure fate,
being your friend was my goal,
but falling in love with you
was far beyond my control.
