A friend of a friend. A heart to heart. My heart beats more. And your heart slows down. I love you. You tolerate me. I know I’ll never be yours. You know you’ll never be mine. I like it that way. It’s safe that way. I’m safe this way. Feelings are hard when no one shares an experience. I’m told that it’s wrong, I feel that it’s wrong. I told that it’s okay, I feel that it’s okay. I love a girl, I’ve loved many girls, I liked a guy, I no longer like guys. Pretty, girl. I wish I was a pretty girl, I wish I was a bit older, I wish I had a girl to call mine. A friend is just a friend, and I wish I could call her my girlfriend 🙁
