I love seeing you
Walking down the hall
Smiling at people
Playing basketball
Playing baseball
I would love to watch
You on the ice
Playing hockey
We were once friends
Now I do not believe
You know I am alive
I don't know what happened
Maybe because I'm not
A cheerleader
A pom
Or a jock
I am at least
A very loyal follower
Of the basketball team
And soon to be of the baseball team
Yes I am in love with you
It's very hard not to be
You, so sweet and nice and caring
I'm sure you wouldn't hurt me
Even though you have before
You didn't know it though
And now you never will
I want to be your friend again
If only...
If only I didn't care so damn much
No matter what
I know deep in my heart
Our friendship will never again
Be the same
I know we can never
Ever truly be friends
Simply because I am in love with you
I can say one thing
In my heart
I will always
Want your friendship
As well as your love.
Can you?
Will you
Possibly ever give me your love?
