How can I tell you I love you? (dedicated to a friend of mine)

I am glad you are my best friend,
But I feel as if my love for you will never end.
You say you feel like my brother,
But how can I tell you, i love you like no other?
You always cheer me up when im shedding a tear,
But telling you I love you is my greatest fear
You smile and tell me not to cry,
How can I tell you I want you to be my guy?
I tell you my secrets and you tell me yours
Can't you see I want you to make me yours?
I need you, and it's tearing me apart,
Can't you see youre the beat in my heart?
The words im about to say is strong and 100 percent true:
Pete, I love you.
