A Loving Friend
If I told you that I love you, would you walk out the door?
If I told you how much I really care, would you feel the same?
If I said that you were the only one I cared about, would you beleive me?
If I gave up my dreams so you could have yours, would you let me be with you?
If I told you that I think about you every day, would it mean anything more?
If I told you that I want you by my side, would you be there for me?
So many things are going through my mind right now, it's hard to describe
When I'm with you or think about you, I feel a part of me growing inside
Deep inside I want to come clean and say how I really feel about you
I'm scared that if I do, that it will tarnish the strong friendship that we have
Nothing means more to me right now, than to see you happy and worry free
To be honest, just having you in my life would complete everything I need
I would wrap my love around you and make you feel like a woman should
Sharing everything that I have with you and never holding back how I feel
Giving you unlimited love and attention, showing that I'm honestly for real
Taking you back to a time when it was nice to have a guy who really cares
Someone that wouldn't treat you bad and one who would never cheat on you
My love is unlimited and true, meant for only you and that is the honest truth
So if I asked you to let me into your life on a whole other level, is there a chance?
Because without you, I feel like a part of me is empty deep inside and it hurts
I know it would put our friendship at a high risk, but what if it was meant to be?
As I leave here tonight, giving you time to think this over without any pressure
I want to assure you that if this is something you don't feel the same way about
I will always remain a true friend, and that's something I promise will never change
If I told you how much I really care, would you feel the same?

Author's Note
Here's another one, that was written back in 2007. There's nothing worse, than having feelings for a best friend. You know that you shouldn't mess with things, because it could completely destroy the friendship. However, you often wonder if the feelings are mutual and if there's so much more waiting to blossom. You finally break down, throw all your cards on the table, and come out with it. You hope and pray this doesn't change anything, but prepare for the worse. We've all been there, at one point or another. We either hid those feelings, and moved on... or we acted on them. We've lost a friendship, kept a friendship, made things awkward, or talked things out.
