it's just so easy to push me away isn't it?
so easy for you just to end it
because you've decided that you've
          figured out your feelings
locking them away in the vault of
          your experience
so sure that just because you've been able to
          do this, I can do it too. . .
                    well I can't
I can only put my feelings in the background
          they will always be there for you
                    whether you want them to be or not
will they get in the way?
          maybe
but you can't expect me to turn them off
          just because you have. . .
I will try. . . and I will usually be successful
          but there will be those awkward moments
                    just let me have them
                             then we'll move past them
and continue with the relationship that
you want us to have. . .
     detached. . .
          seperate. . .
               a friendship. . .
but how can you have a friendship
          without feelings?

I don't know. . .

Hi there. This I can relate to also. Hasn't been this way recently thankfully, but honestly...(and don't kick me here) I've been the one to do what you've described in the poem. It isn't easy either way.
Enjoyed this! ((Hugs)) Hope things get better.

I can certainly relate!  Things do eventually get better...waiting for that "perfect" life can always bring hope!....beth

a thin line beween love and hate..sometimes you can get them confused..sometimes when someone hurts you who you love..its easy to hate them for making you love them..if that makes any sense at all haa...heartfelt Sven..

Relates to the cliche, "I still want to be friends"  to be blunt and honest, this kicked major ass!  I was right there a year ago.  Great work dude!!!
