Just Friends-My Conundrum

Just friends, you say are you and I. For you, I'll try, but it's untrue. I care for you. I can't say why. Oh, how can I, when I'm near you? You reach for me with warm embrace I lose my grace within your arms, enchanted arms. I just can't face this lonely space without your charms. For you, I'll try to be a friend but in the end you'll always know how close I'll grow, my minuend, if life I spend within your glow. For who are you and what am I when lost am I in your blue eyes. My heart's disguise, for you I'll lie, and won't ask why, through tear filled guise.
