You started out as a friend Someone I could talk to Someone I could laugh with Times continued changing as did my feelings for you they just grew and grew They became something more I would crumble when you smiled When you spoke to me about your day I didn't know what to do I didn't know what I could say Should I tell you how I feel? What would I do if you said no What would I do without you as a friend to talk to each night And what if you said yes would I be the right girl for you? Would I be what you wanted? I can't lose your friendship but I can't stand not being more. What should I do? Should I tell you how I feel? and hope my dreams become real? Can I live with the other chance If your answer isn't yes Can we go on as friends? Or will it be the end of us? It's so complicated. (inspired by Carolyn Johnson "Complicated" ) If we're told we're bad, that's the only idea we'll ever have. Maybe if we are surrounded by beauty someday we will become what we see.

Oye! I know how that goes. You meet someone. You become friends. You become great friends. You begin to wonder if they want to be more then friends, but don't want to risk losing them altogether. It becomes too much to bear, those hidden feelings. You eventually work up the courage to ask, needing an answer. They respond, in my case it was a no. You can, if you both want it bad enough, get back to the point you were at before asking, though it is VERRRY hard. But not asking would be the biggest mistake of all, because, for the rest of your life, you will wonder what they would have said. Surprised? I just went thru the same thing over the past year. It'll be hard if they say no, but you'll get through it. Just have faith. Oh, and by the way, the poem was verrry well written! I liked it! Good Write! Good Night! Rich Love will come and love will go, but friends are forever (usually). |

Oh man, what a predicament you are in. Whew. Stressful, aye? My advice- Do some research before you come out and tell this guy how you feel...Cause you obviously do NOT want to ruin the friendship if he stupidly says no. ![]() You wouldn't worry about what people thought about you if you knew how seldom they did. |

This poem makes me get chills..I know exactly what you're going though. At one time I felt the same way as you..utterly confused and didn't know what to do. Don't worry hopefully things will go the way you want them to! Good luck ~*~JeSs~*~ |

Thank you for your kind words. It's always been said you fall in love with your friends. And it's not that I'm in love with this person. Just that I admire them. So of course it brings out different feelings than I'm used to having for him. Thanks for the words and it's nice to know i'm not the only one falling for my friends. If we're told we're bad, that's the only idea we'll ever have. Maybe if we are surrounded by beauty someday we will become what we see. |

nice piece. I feel you could have gone into a bit more emotion though. At the moment, you're just skimming in the surface. Try delving a little deeper. ![]() Thanks for sharing. ~AF~ "Kelly's my Hero!" "No, Kelly's your heroine." "Kelly has heroin??" "What?" |

Thank you all so much for reading my poem. I have given the situation much thought. And I've come to this conclusion. The feelings I hold are admiration, not intimate. And definately not something worth hurting our friendship. Thank you all. Good luck on future writings. |
