Questions unanswered fill my head.
I want to ask you about everything.
But, I try to ignore my thoughts.
I just don't want to bother you or push you away.
When we talk, I open my mouth to ask one of my questions.
But then, I catch myself and think of something else to say.
The pain of not knowing pulls a little black cloud over my heart.
I know I should ask you and I don't know why I don't.
You're my best friend and usually I tell you everything.
But, loving your best friend makes things that much more complicated.
And, this love is not that of just two friends.
It's a "fallen-head-over-heels" kind of love.
My heart leaps every time I see you.
But, then it falls when I know I'm not telling you my thoughts.
I'm so scared of what might happen if I say too much.
But, I am also afraid of saying too little.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You're walking towards me now.
I asked you to meet me in our spot so we can talk.
I've thought the whole conversation through.
And, I thought I knew exactly how to say everything.
But, once I saw you coming closer, all my plans seemed to fly away.
You're standing right in front of me
And i try to talk, but I'm choking on words.
you ask if I'm all right and I lie and say yes.
I ask you to sit down.
And, you're so close to me that with one shift of movement, our knees would be touching.
I reach for your hand for some sort of strength that will help me through.
You lace your fingers tightly through mind and hold on.
You ask me what's wrong.
And, I try to begin but it takes a moment.
When I finally let everything out, I begin to cry.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wish I could have seen the look on your face.
But, when my tears began falling, you pulled me into your arms and held me close.
You said that I didn't have to worry and said I shouldn't be afraid to talk to you.
I felt like a child for breaking down the way that I had.
But, you were there to make everything right.
Just from talking today, I know that I will always need you.
And, I know you'll always be there.
I no longer have to hesitate to say what's on my mind.
I can be myself and no longer worry.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What was said that day is only known by us.
We walked away from that conversation and left the worries behind.
Together, we stood, hand in hand.
And, we know that we are meant to be together.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Two friends who have fallen in love is the greatest thing of all.
There is no fear.
And, pain seems to disappear.
Trust becomes stronger than ever.
No one else will understand it.
But, together, we can fight off anything.
And, we only need each other.
