The Friend Zone

Just try to imagine, 
A world free of lies,
Where within, 
Never a lover cries. 

Hopefully I can do better,
Than the men who came before,
No tears upon your sweater, 
You will be hurt no more.

But you say you'll never trust me,
For I am just another, 
That will never come to be, 
Just another non blood brother. 

So I have found a home, 
Of people with the same tone, 
Which is that of a sad tome,
Welcome brethren; to the friend-zone.
