I'm afraid to say

You said you'd always be here,
standing next to me proud.
You know almost everything there is to know,
except one thing I'm afraid to say outloud.

I'm scared to fall in-love with you,
my best friend in this world.
Your pretty eyes and face,
your beautiful flowing curls.

Sometimes I long to hold you,
or wish I could kiss your face.
To have you love me differently,
to feel just one embrace.

I hate myself for feeling weak,
for falling for you like this.
I know that I'll never have you,
and that you'll always be his.

I guess I'm just jealous,
I know I could treat you right.
But I'll always be happy because,
it's me you come to when you fight.

Author notes

I have to be careful because she could see this. This poem is about one of my best friends who lives here. I could never tell her that I'm bi-curious for fear of losing her. I know she'd still be my friend, but she might act weird, considering I think she's beautiful, and I'd do anything just to hold her.. Maybe one day... when we're like 30 lol...

    This poem is so real and easy to relate to. I know I have been afraid to fall in love, seeing love as a weakness, as surrenduring. But, we all succumb to it in the end anyways...lol. Great job!

    this is good. but dont be scared of ur bi curiosity. u will find that more girls are curious than they let on lol. im bi tho its been a while. due to kids n stuff. but i still find woman beautiful n there is one i would do anything for and she lives in usa. but she knows n one day admitted she felt same so now we have a close bond that noone could break. so dont be afraid of it. being bi doesnt mean u dont love ur other half more than life itself just means u like a sensitive touch from time to time. lol n my hubby says if i go with a woman its not cheating. men n there fantasies lol

    This is brilliant... I know just how it is... I am very close to someone I would like to try this with and I care for that way... But I could see myself marrying my boy... It's so hard...

    Aw Sis, its important to tell your friend how you feel. I mean that is what friendship is all about, but remember the love that you are marrying and don't let your true love slip away Be careful sis, I don't want you to be like me and end up alone (relationship-wise) Love you Your Sara Dawn

    I'm getting married, and so is she, but not for atleast two years. My boyfriend knows I'm curious, and supports me on whatever I may do. But nothing will ever happen, because I know, that she would never do anything with me. You're lucky...

    Good Job

    LaLa, it's so crazy how much I relate to you and each word you write. For the longest time I've had a crush on my bestfriend who I mentioned to ya, who lives in Mississippi, the other night I found out she feels the same. It's weird because we are the best of friends, like sisters, yet, we have this facination (spelling) with one another the goes beyond just friends. It is scary when you look/talk to your friend and know that you want something more, even if it's not "til death do us part"... Well, for once things turned out good for me, and we've been brought closer. Perhaps a little to close for our own good, because she is getting married... but, Anyways... . I liked the poem, and I hope that all turns out well with this situation .
