Confrontation

Shall I let time dull,

The intensity of the feelings

I feel for this one-sided love?

Or shall I talk to you about this

Insecurity that I feel.

I like you because you're nice.

I don't want to like you because

You're my friend.

I want not the awkwardness

Of a failed relationship.

I wish time froze and

My feelings for you never showed.

But what's done is done.

I have to deal with this alone.

Am I alone?

Or are you there to guide me?

I want to let time flow,

But I know that if this

Were to ever be resolved,

I have to summon my courage,

And face you and my feelings,

Unafraid of anything.

I want to run.

I did that didn't I?

I ran away from you,

From pain.

But I am stronger now,

Because I know you

Don't want to hurt me.

And I know that if

I want an answer,

I have to search for it.

And now I've reached,

A conclusion...

I like you.

You don't like me back.

The same way.

We're friends.

And we'll always remain

That way.

I accept this reality,

But I still cling to the frailty

Of my dream of being

With you.

But don't worry,

Soon all this will be over.

Time will dull my yearning,

For your warm embrace.

But for now,

My confrontation,

Has allowed me

To erase your face,

From my fantasies.

A/N: The reason why I wrote this was because it did happen to me. I kinda started liking my friend and I know he doesn't like me back, for a while after I told him that I liked him, everything between us was awkward, but now, I talked to him about it, and things have been resolved. Nothing will ever happen between us, but still, I can't help but still dream of being with him, and I was soo confused, so I just had to write about it. So ya..haha..just read and review. Thanks. )
