Jackie by Jon Macomber
play into this heart and soul
and it seems like we've been down this road before
and I don't want to run into problems anymore
scary as it seems we are quite well
the best of friends can often be hell
when you feel much more for the other
than yourself
and at times I try to fight it away
but your touch makes it stronger day to day
frustrated, I only push you away
how many time has the topic come up
between us , how much I love you
and you get scared, then we don't talk for days
silence ain't golden for this boy
I feel alone in the world without your voice
seeing your face makes me rejoice.
don't know what I'd do if you weren't around
my heart hurts at just the thought
but you never seemed to really care
what of us will become
I hope you realize that I love you, hun,
and I'd never leave your side
if it were my time
and it seems like we've been down this road before
and I don't want to run into problems anymore
scary as it seems we are quite well
the best of friends can often be hell
when you feel much more for the other
than yourself
and at times I try to fight it away
but your touch makes it stronger day to day
frustrated, I only push you away
how many time has the topic come up
between us , how much I love you
and you get scared, then we don't talk for days
silence ain't golden for this boy
I feel alone in the world without your voice
seeing your face makes me rejoice.
don't know what I'd do if you weren't around
my heart hurts at just the thought
but you never seemed to really care
what of us will become
I hope you realize that I love you, hun,
and I'd never leave your side
if it were my time
I wrote this poem about a girl who is my best friend. We have never had any romantic experiences, but through the years I've known her, I've fallen madly in love with her. She kind of knows this, but I don't know how she feels about it.
