To A Friend

I hide in this big mask

Trying to fight the feelings I have

For you who is sweet and nice

Friendship with you is far more important

So this feeling I will keep inside

I may be hurt everytime you're with her

But I'm trying my best just to stand still

The love I have for you will always be there

Everyday it grows and it grows stronger

I do have the courage to say this

If these were for someone else

But to you my friend I can't

I know that all you can give me is friendship

I long have accepted that fact

Though I am hiding in this big mask

My love for you just couldn't be denied

You may already have noticed it

Though you are just trying to ignore it

I admit that I am loving you this much

And this much I'll just forever keep inside....

It isn't a secret that I fell in love with friends. There are those that I openly told the person (risking the friendship). And there are those that I didn't. And it is no secret that these "love" caused me heartaches because they weren't reciprocated. But I am already past that. I believe that those were necessary pain for me to learn, to grow, and be ready when  my one true love comes. 

If I'll be asked why I took the risk for some  and didn't for the others. Simple, because those risks were worth taking. The people involved were worth the risk.
