I’m only a friend to the world
Yet to experience the sweet caress
We call love
Watching hands being held
Lips meeting souls
Hearts intertwining
But I’m sorry it is something
That I’m unfamiliar of
Talks of romance
Two tales having a dance
Hoping they may meet again
Not as just friends
But soulmates who dance
The same dance
Brought together through a trance
But I’m sorry again
That is something that I’m unfamiliar with my friend
For my tongue to speak this truth
Would undoubtedly seem like a spew
Of disregard for what the universe has gifted me
Even though these things haunt and tempt me
I should never speak my truth
For my mind to bury my heart
Even if it knows my deepest darkest truths
What else would the universe expect me to do
My feelings don’t matter to you, you or you
Maybe that’s why I’m always so bummed and blue
Because if you knew how many times I have to grab that shovel
How the handle is so rusted
My hands busted
How my stomach and gut can’t be trusted
I am disgusted
Putting them six feet under
Just so I can enjoy the rest of it
Because there a comes a time
I have to remember to the world
I’m just a friend
