Friend

Dear friend,
I never imagined I could feel this way
Now that I know you I cant imagine what it would be like if I didn’t anymore,
We were only supposed to be 2 strangers in lust
And now it has blossomed to something more
You are now my lover,
My friend.
When I lay my head on your chest
I hear your heart beat
I feel like I’m home
And everything is okay
Like nothing could go wrong.
NOW
This is bad because I was never supposed to feel anything for you
And in this moment I feel like I’m in love with you
It is most likely the beginning stage
Where everything’s good
But I don’t mind
Because I love spending time with you.
And if this is pretend 
Then ill play along 
Because at the end of the day your heartbeat is my favorite song
This might not make much sense 
But I need to let my thoughts wander 
I know you feel the same way
But yet you continue to stay
Away
From me
Instead of growing fonder
Just think….
What could we be?
Live in the moment 
Set your heart free.

'...your heartbeat is my favorite song,' you had me right there! A sweet, confessional piece of poetry where your emotions are just beginning to develop. If this is true, GOOD LUCK! Best wishes, Keith
