Poem
Why are you acting so bold towards me? I thought we could end up being friends. I didn’t realize that my actions towards you would cause our friendship to end. In the moments that existed before hand, I assumed it was the right thing to do. But now in the moments afterwards, I blame myself for walking away from you. I mean at least I could have stood there, And waited for you to plead your case. But see that’s my point exactly. I was already too ashamed to look you straight in the face. There’s two roads that were my options to take. One which I would have taken alone. Unfortunately, there’s the one that I chose, And on that road I felt I didn’t belong. The 1st one would have been happy in the beginning, but soon I would feel by myself in the relationship. I would ask myself on the days that he didn’t come home, What is he doing in the streets and who is he doing it with? On the road that I decided to walk upon, It was my duty to tell you how I felt. But I didn’t acknowledge to myself that by telling you this, It would cause your smile and my heart to melt. I knew that I had to tell you… …because I felt I was cramping your style. I had to find out who I was by leaving you alone for a while. The thought of us being together… …in your life I felt I had no place. Truly deep down in my heart I knew I was smothering you so I had to give you some space. I constantly sat there waiting… For you…is who I missed. But I was tired of looking stupid, For someone who left me clueless. I’m not upset at the fact that you didn’t like me, But by the way you couldn’t say it. I promise you that I would have left you alone, Then the lust for you would have faded. But even if you did feel the same, I admire you for not wanting to play with my head. We both know that a possibility of us was less than likely, That’s why it’s impossible for me to feel sad. So I hope there aren’t any hard feelings. What I feel for you would probably never die. I would stop in my tracks to say hello… …To you, my friend, as you are passing by.
