I Just Want To Be Friends

by Cathy   Feb 2, 2007


I'm thinking of what to do
I'm sorry I'm not in love with you
My heart belongs to another
and it wouldn't be fair for you to suffer

I don't want to hurt you because you deserve so much
I didn't mean to lead you on with my touch
I wasn't thinking of my actions I just went with the flow
and now I'm asking you to just let me go

Cause I told you from the beginning I wasn't looking for love
and now your telling me I'm the one you think of
what am I suppose to do when I don't feel the same way
I know I need to tell you but I don't have the courage to say

I'm afraid to hurt you cause you are my friend
its just that I'm not over my ex and I can no longer pretend
that I can let him go that fast cause it ain't so
It was bad enough for me that I had to let him go

So please try to understand that I only want to be friends
And if you can't I'm sorry but this has got to end
I can't just go living each day a lie
I know you want to be my only guy

and your a good person inside and out
but that still doesn't change the feelings that I felt
maybe under different circumstances we could of been one
But its not meant to be since my heart belongs to the father of my son

so just let me go, now is the time
you're pain will be a little less and you will go on to be fine
don't try to hold onto me cause I don't belong to you
please just let me go, Its bad enough knowing what I'm putting you through

    An amazing poem!
    I was in such a similiar position with a friend i have. I just kept pushing him away and then i finally realised that he was the one i needed. Think i may have realised a little too late. He is always there for me as a friend though and i hope that your friend will always be there for you too.
