No More lies. No More.
I cant take it anymore.

I almost destroyed an innocent girls life this way,
I dragged this naive nordic princess through the Mud of Lies,
and in the process I have nearly destroyed myself.

So I'm going to be brutally honest for now on,
out of respect for you and out of respect for me.

So as much as I like you and care about you,
I only want to be friends.

You have been there for me at my most recent lowest points. Do you really want to be my rebound?
Is that what you want?

Why not be my friend instead? It could last forever that way. I am too dysfunctional for a relationship right now. And the honest truth is that I don't want that with you.

Accept that and life with it.

Do you know what friendship means?
Understand that I don't mean in the bull
version of friends,
The version where its a cliche, and we never talk again or see each other.

I'm talking about the real way,
where friends talk and hang out,
where friends go out and have lunch.
where friends talk on the phone and giggle.

And I can't allow you to throw me down anymore
and seduce me, althought I do enjoy the role reversal. And I do enjoy the way you rape me.

But I am not like other men,
who just want to get off,
I get attached easily - it's just the way I am.

Its in my chemistry,
Its the way it is,

As much as I love to do it
and as good as you say I am

that alone is not enough for me anymore.

So be my friend, or don't talk to me anymore.

I was hoping for a poem that talked about flowers and happy dayz...

I don't know what to say.  It's hard to watch someone in such pain...especially when they had the chance to avoid it by giving their heart to someone who would cherish it.  

Time is what is needed.  To phase into what you ask.

Wow...that really hit home for me...I was trying to do that to a guy because I really liked him and he didn't like me that way. Now he won't even talk to me anymore...It's better to know how the other person feels since they usually don't just come out and say it. Thanks for posting it..I really enoyed reading it..
