when i see you today,
will i be more than your friend,
or will i endure,
the same old games agian?

if i was to hold you,
so tight and so long,
and tell you i love you,
would it be wrong?

becuase we are only "friends."

when i see you today,
will your promise be kept?
will they know who i am to you,
and have to accept?

if i was to kiss you,
so soft and so sweet,
would it be alright,
for you to tell me you love me?

or do "friends" never get that close?

when i see you today,
will my worries be gone,
my questions answered,
our love somehow strong?

if i was to have you,
till death do us part,
through sickness and health,
with all of my heart,

then will i never have to prtend to be
          your "friend?"


 i often chose to follow my heart, only to lose my way.

This poem is deeper than it appears on the surface. Very good questions, Amber.

Enjoyed this piece Amber....
I am married going on 16 years to my best friend....for me it worked beautifully....

 A soul that writes from the heart and shares it, truly gives a gift extraordinaire!
