When I see you,
My heart skips a beat,
Thinking you may notice me,
More than just your friend, your buddy, your pal.
I have tried everything,
To get you to notice me.
I have changed my looks,
Told you your new girlfriend isn’t good enough for you,
Even tried hinting that I like you.
Why am I only a friend?
Don’t you ever think of the what if’s,
Between you and me.
I am always there for you,
When another girl breaks your heart,
You are always there for me,
When I feel rejection has set in.
Why can’t we be there for one another,
As you and me?
We would be perfect together,
You know me,
I know you.
I know the good and bad about you,
You know my mistakes.
We can talk for hours,
Never stopping, but you always get on the subject of your latest crush.
I sit there listening, thinking,
Why can’t it be me?
Am I not good enough?
What do I need to do,
To fill this gap in my heart,
The space that has your name on it?
What will it take for you to love me the way I love you?
In my dreams every night,
There is you,
Holding me in the safety of your arms,
Never wanting to let go.
Making me feel wanted, needed, loved.
When I wake up from those dreams,
I cry not only from the sadness of not being “your girl,”
But happiness for I am yours in my dreams.
I will wait for an eternity to become yours,
To have you notice me,
To feel your arms wrapped around me,
And for that first sweet kiss,
I have been dreaming of since the day I met you.
But for today,
I will stand on the outside,
Wondering, why can’t it be me?
