Hi. I'm not used to posting in this section, but I couldn't really find a place for this piece. Lemme know what you think!! Thanks.

"best friend"

To hold him in my arms
To softly press my lips to his
To wake up, him asleep next to me
My dreams tear me apart

I must stop these feelings I have
He must never learn of them
I pretend as though nothing is wrong
But inside I am screaming at the top of my voice

I love him as a dear friend
I care about him in another way
I stupidly let myself fall for him
And now I must deal with it alone

I close my eyes, seeing him
His black hair, shiny with gel
His brown eyes, almost black in colour
His thin, tall body, set off with his naturally tan skin

I think about myself then
Ratty, boring blonde hair
Piercing green eyes behind oval lenses
Complete with a stupid, weak-looking face

I always wonder how he found out
But however it happened, that¡¦s in the past
He knows of my feelings for him, but remains
He is a true, dear friend

I wish the story could end here
But, alas, my luck goes against me
Now I sit at my desk, confused
As I wait for his call this evening

I ponder about my feelings for him
And whether they are that of friendship or more
Constantly confused, I often believe
That I have lied to myself, as I have him

Do I still want to kiss him?
Do I still want to hold him?
Or have those feelings passed
Silently, like the words I once wanted to say to him?

----------------------------------------------------

So...yeah. Fairly blunt, and it pretty much says everything about my best friend and my relationship. : (

ths is really well written. ALthough it's sad i loved it.
Situations like this are oftern confussing and messy. trust me i'm in one myself, all you can do though is wait and see how it's ging to turn out. It doesn't sound as if you're totally going to loose him so thats some thing.
