If We're So Different

There's you and then there's me.
We're both so different and not alike.
Yet every time I'm with you,
My heart begins to spike.

I really don't understand these things.
I mean, we're only good friends.
Or, at least, that's what I assumed,
But my heart confuses me to no end.

So if we're both so different,
I don't like you like that.
I'm right. Am I right?
All I know is my heart whacks me like a bat.

No, it is not possible.
You're only my buddy.
Just because you're not my gender,
Doesn't mean I can stop at you and study.

I must prevent any further thoughts
To enter into my mind.
I must keep myself sane
And our friendship I must again find.

No, I can't love you.
You love that other girl.
You wouldn't even stop to ponder.
You wouldn't even give "us" a whirl.

But if I did tell you...
No, I mustn't even try.
Because if I told you,
You'd only say goodbye.

But what if you asked me first?
Then I wouldn't be so scared!
But that's not going to happen,
So I'm not even prepared.

When you never ask,
I cry myself to sleep.
I sob and sob and sob and sob
And just continue to weep.

I can't tell you how I feel,
It just wouldn't be right.
I can't risk you laughing at me
Or trying to pick a fight.

Now you're far away and gone,
You left with her a while back.
I'm so hurt now I could die.
I just wish I could follow your tracks.

I missed my moment, yes, I know.
Because you're too far away to contact.
Maybe next time I fall in love I'll be smart...
But that's a very difficult pact.
This poem is based off of some real events, but not really :) It's , you know, the classic "we're best friends but I like you as more than that" sort of things :XD: Sadly, this one doesn't have a happy ending, but hey it's not the movies :nana: So yeah, hope you like it, I liked writing it :) It's one of my longest poems so far! :D
