Then at night when it’s quiet and everything’s black,
Her thoughts will often reveal,
What she says and does throughout the warm day,
Doesn’t explain the way that she feels,
About the love that she wants, the care and caress,
The desire to be a best friend,
She leaves scars on her tongue from what’s never said,
She keeps calm and smiles instead,
And she calls bull#### on friend zone, it doesn’t exist,
She doesn’t know the words she should say,
To the girls in her life that she thinks are the ones,
She does not want to be a cliché,
So she drifts off to sleep to her nightmare each night,
Her one where she thinks she’s insane,
Where she talks with anxiety alone with her fear,
Of her unemotional emotional pain.
You have the prettiest eyes and I'm sorry I made them cry
You always tell me about the story of your childhood,
why you have crooked teeth,
but for me I saw how beautiful that smile was
and I'm sorry if I'm the reason why it fade and turn into frown.
I know you don't like your body but it doesn't matter to me
I saw how beautiful you are when you talk about your passion, your dreams and your goals
I'm sorry if you feel bad about yourself again
You have the biggest heart, it's pure and fragile
And I know it would be an understatement to say sorry for breaking it
As some people are better off as friends before turning into lovers.
We’ve been good friends for so long
I wonder why we still get along
For many years you’ve never notice
I’ve been secretly dreaming for a kiss
It’s never wrong to feel this way
I like to be with you everyday
But why I am pained when you’re broken
It hurts me a lot more than your burden
I wanted to tell how much I adore you
Secretly telling words “I LOVE YOU”
Being with you is magical and timeless
But you never see my beauty at its best
You are my drug, my addiction for life
I slit my own wrist using my sharp knife
You are too numb but the rest of the world knows
I am too dumb but the rest of my world flows
I have no reasons not to love you
You are worthy to be loved that’s why I chose you
I don’t know when this craziness will end
My bestfriend, my love, I’ll love you till the end
Shackles and chains she put me in,
And pet me like a loyal dog,
Killer she was but not of humans
She killed my emotions and my heart
How much I loved, I cant explain
I guess the true ones deserve the pain
Cause truth in world cant be tolerated
Hell is better, friendzone is shame
Atleast we know we'll be contained
The fires of that place burn lot less
Unholy tormentors of that place
Reply how they're expected by name
Verdict she passed, told me it's on
Either be friend or forever be gone
Destroyed I am, wont be no more
I chose my freedom over chains I wore
As a child learning to walk, I
discovered stumbling,
And now as an upright adult,
I sometimes count back my previous
steps, like the baby steps in your
direction;
Subconsciously, my feet always walk in
the direction of attraction,
And obviously spotted a winner in
you;
However this steady pace misread the
time limit of your romance,
And second place is where my feet currently
reside;
Although a religious woman, you don’t see
the Adam and Eve complex between us,
Rather you underestimate my advancement
for mere friendship,
And at best the status of a brother;
I realize that your soul is blind,
And these glasses of mine would
fit perfectly,
But you’d rather continuously wear
unhealthy contact lenses;
For this reason, my passion for walking has
come to a halt;
I sometimes reminisce on those last five steps
I took,
With every inch of courage, to eliminate the
friendzone between us,
And yet I’ll never recall the exact value of
footsteps post-defeat,
Which have remained immortal over the
years;
Friendship: such a two-faced gift,
Heaven and Hell in one blessing.
