Just Friends
We were friends.
Maybe a little too friendly on our ends.
It took me long enough to unlock that cage,
But when I did, oh god I liked every page.
So I don’t quite know how it all came to an end;
Cause I was oddly proud, to simply be your friend.
I really did want to be your friend.
But you know, the kind of friends that end up kissing in the rain.
The kind of friends who when end up together, finally.
No one’s surprised, cause they all knew we were meant to be.
They said you were an introvert and weren’t at all open.
But every time I lowered my head and smiled,
Cause I knew that was a barrier I had broken.
So I stayed a friend.
And I will if you let me till the end.
Cause all these feels, oh what do they matter?
To you of course;
To me, they are like my ashes scattered.
So I still stay a friend.
Even though I know it’s a dead end;
And maybe one day the universe will reward me
As the friend who cared a lot more than you could see.
