...

I want you to hug me.
I want you to hold me and never let go.
I want you to feel towards me how I feel towards you.

I know it won't happen.
I know I have no chance with you.
So I'll settle for a simple friendship.

Friendship is better than nothing after all.
Besides, your heart belongs to another.
One who came before me.

You belong to her.
And she belongs to you.
Regardless of doubts.

She wronged you.
Yet you don't attempt to get revenge.
You stay faithful when she could not.

It's admirable.
It's sweet.
It's right.

I only wish you would hold me.
Tell me it'll be okay.
Help me repair myself.

But for now, you're hers.
And though I may wish you for my own,
She rightfully has you.

So I'll keep my mouth shut.
I won't say anything.
I'll remain your faithful friend.

I'll be there when you need me.
Comfort you when you are sad.
And hug you when all you need is a hug.

When she can't be there for you.
I'll be there.
Willing to do anything to help.

Because that's who I am.
That's how I operate.
That's how I act.

Loyal to you forever.
I will always be your friend.
I will always be there when you need me.

You may not feel the same towards me.
You may feel towards me more than I feel towards you.
Regardless, I'm happy where I stand.

I won't try to steal you.
She loves you.
And I can't do that to either of you.

So as long as you are happy,
I will be happy too.
So stay happy.
