End of a Friendship
Masculinity's breathing down my neck
no man wants to be a girl's best friend
only their best fuck
that's why I've cut our friendship
she can't acknowledge my y chromosome
this blindness makes me angry
makes a mockery of my arrogance
she's bawling in my face for answers
the drink always did loosen her emotions
I cut through my lust and turn vicious
blame all the shortcomings on her
the trust I once bestowed in her eyes has gone
replaced by fear and sorrow
she tries to hug me
but I've got to prove I'm a man
I push her away
smash my glass into the bar
the last vestiges of bourbon slip from the shards
trickle onto the dirty floor
and evaporate
just like our friendship.

Most men and women know that the sudden revelation by their love interest to - JUST BE FRIENDS - is a means of rejection that is supposed to be easy...but is not
Your Y chromosome has nothing to do with it....
It is rejection and loss of face, loss of dignity...an inner feeling that you lack something...
