Once a Friend, Always a Friend

I havent touched another since you Your busy, but to me... time isnt a factor I havent kissed another since you Just to show... you are the one that matters We have had fun times Along with crazy experiences Yet the genuineness in your heart showed me the sign The sign of what I wanted Also what I deserved We couldnt make it work I was a little to much work But I'll never forget all the sweet words which came out of your mouth Tenderness came out of your soul None of my secrets left your mouth I'll always be here for you, I hope you know Your actions are rare as can be found Learning to trust, in you I found Unconditionally there Sad, happy, depressed, anxious, you were still there So when it got hard, I wish you didnt disappear The friend I never had The friend I needed Made me believe I can and I will succeed Opened my eyes to a whole new world I hate that I pushed you away I truly thought you were strong enough to deal with my flaws and all I thought you would be the one to stay Gave up so easily See the bad Do you notice any good in me? Sweet texts Midnight "im thinking of you" shows up on my phone Forehead kisses Made me feel I wasnt alone Thoughts, words of romance and dates...flowers and chocolates The dates never came But how sweet, the thoughts of you wanting to remained I often wonder. .. Do you think of me like I think of you? Does any part of you miss me? I often wonder. .. Why couldn't I rewind time and start over Why wasnt I good enough And why did I have to meet the perfect person at most imperfectly wrong time I miss the way we talked The sweet things we both said I miss being in your arms Feeling safe with you I thought since I was honest in the beginning you would understand When time came down to it you just wasn't a strong enough man You cant handle me Yet you ignored how good I would've treated you Time has passed But always know, our friendship will always last. Months without a single word When that word is spoken I will be there Not because im waiting Not because im weak Yet, because im a real friend Truly genuine When you are ready to let me in, dont think you cant because we havent talked Know that you can because we talked enough for you to know the real me Someone that cares and sees deep beneath Someone who will always be around Even when the friendship feels its no longer around
