To My Best Friend? by Shannbodan
This is for the greatest person
that I have ever known.
Being away from you for so long
I am feeling so alone.
With you I am so happy
you keep my heart content.
But I had to be a volunteer -
so off to England I went.
That is where I found my heart
and how I feel for you.
I try so hard to deny this feeling
and I don't know what to do.
I said that I would never again
let someone take my heart.
And here I'm sitting wanting you
and hate that we're apart.
Everyday you are in my thoughts,
every night you're in my dreams.
I can't believe what's happening,
is this really what it seems?
I know you're only wanting
to be the best of friends,
but I am asking you sincerely
if it's your rule you'll bend.
To take a chance to know me
to let me share it all.
And maybe one day very soon
for me one day you'll fall.
Our friendship we now have
is something that I'd miss
but maybe once we let go
we will find eternal bliss.
that I have ever known.
Being away from you for so long

I understand. I have very intense feelings for my best friend. We've been friends for 10 years since we were 3. I love him and my heart yearns for him but he loves another. - Katie |
|
This poem really touched me & opened up my eyes. Really since i as well in a similar situation we have been best friends for almost 3yrs now and my bond w/him has grown into more than just friendship but he would rather us stay friends but i think it would be better off that way. Cuz i think i would be more scared of losing his friendship more than anything in the world. Since he has alwayz been their for me through both the good & bad. So will be forever friends. Best friends i should say. - Rossy |

I loved this poem. I have a best friend ever in the entire world, and I've only known him a month. And I love him so much more then a friend, but I could never tell him that.

This poem touched me, because i am in the predicament. I have fallen in love for the first time. He is my best friend. We hang out all the time. We laugh together, watch movies together. We could do something, or nothing, and be having the time of our lives. I love him so much, but he was hurt pretty bad a year ago. He cant get past it. So, i may never have him. It hurts more than anything in this world. more power to you. for things working out. - Tiffany |

This poem is something that i can relate to. It's funny how when you are friends with someone and all of a sudden you feel these feelings that you never felt before, and how you wonder if that friend feels the same as you feel. Great poem something that i believe people can relate to. - jaan |

this is a something felt by every girl at one stage. happens to me everytime i have a guy best friend. but i think it is a good thing to fall for a person who knows you well than someone who doesnt. thats why your husband or wife should be your best friend as well as your lover. - angelina |

OMG! This poem is EXCELLENT! I feel the exact same way about my best friend. We've known each other for a long time (7 years in October) and I've always felt like this but I've never been able to tell him because I thought that it would ruin our friendship. but even though we're only friends, I still love him with all of my heart. he's the best thing that ever happened to me. Great Job! - Ashley |

|
excellent! I just wanted to tell everyone who is stuck in the same situation: GO FOR IT! There's no way you can hold your feelings back, it just hurts even more than showing them! Love always - Milka |
|
I just want to say that if you are thinking about telling you best friend that you fell in love with them you should think about how much you really want it, and if you ready to take the consequences that come with it. I got hurt by telling my best friend that I fell in love with him and it was the biggest mistake I made in my whole life. When we are together, me and him both know that things will never be the same. I lkove him and miss the times we used to hve together - Jessika |
