When Friendship Turns to Love (to K.G.) by Melanie A BennettDay by day
Word by word
You are confusing me more
I hear it continuously
Every day
Like and old broken record
Over and over again
Your love for him is overpowering
You feel he has to know
You must tell him
Or you will regret it
It's a different kind of love..you tell me
It's not a "sexual" thing
Just to feel his arms around you
For him to notice your existance
To sit and talk for hours about nothingness
That is all you want
As I hear you speak of your feelings
It seems to me that you are reading aloud from the book of my life
You are unknowingly describing to me my situation
Only the person I want to tell is you
How strange is that?
All of your being belongs to him and another
There is no room in your heart for anyone or anything else
There is nothing I could do
Except sit in the darkness contemplating the bizarreness of my situation
I can not offer you anything but advice
While I sit and suffer
Needing advice so badly on you
I don't know who to turn to
You are unknowingly causing so much pain in my heart and mind
He will never look at you as I do
You are my hero!
Someone I look up to
Want to be with always
And am "in love" with
Love is such an abstract word with many meanings
It doesn't have to be a physical or sexual thing
And it's not
It's just beyond overpowering...emotionally and mentally
Rescue me from these feelings
Say you love me too
If even for only a second
Let me know I mean something to you
And I will leave you alone forever
Fading into eternal lonliness and darkness...

It's lovely. If ya don't say something to him you'll never know. Then you'll keep wondering. I'm wondering who K G is. :) |
