I am complete
I am whole
I don't need another "half"
I just need the other circle to my venn diagram
The other complete person to overlap with
We are complete
We are whole
We are not two "halves" looking to be whole
We are two complete circles
With things in common
Things that overlap
I don't think I could handle being a half
If I were half and you made me whole
What would happen if you left?
What if it were the other way around?
When you are a half made whole
Things would hurt so much more
Not only if you left
But while I'm looking
While I'd be looking
I'd be incomplete
Half of me wouldn't be there
So no
I'm not looking for my other "half"
I'm looking for my other circle
The other part of my vann diagram
As I lay here
In my bed
Thoughts of you dance
Within my head
I try to sleep
But toss and turn
Thinking thoughts
That cause concern
Not having you here
Is no fun
I sit up cursing
What I've done
I said things
One should not say
All in hopes
Of getting my way
It didn't work
Not at all
Now you won't answer me
Even one single call
Oh how I wish
I could make things right
You know how I hate it
When we fight
I'm sorry
It's true
But I can't take back
What I did to you
What you sow
Is what you reap
I guess that's why
I'm devoid of sleep
Night after night
I will not rest
Until this guilt
Is off my chest

I am the best friend
And I am in love
I am loved back
But not in that way
Not in the way I crave
Not in the way I need
But I am the best friend
So I must do as the best friend does
Make you laugh
Be by your side
Comfort you when sad
Advise you in love
Deal with my pain
Hide my tears
Don't make things worse
Pretend it's okay
It's hard
So hard
Making jokes about my feelings
Like they're not there
Letting you throw my words back at me
Like I can stand to hear them again
Giving hugs and being around
Like I don't want more
Hearing you say no one loves you
Like you haven't heard me say that I do
Letting you so close
Like it doesn't hurt
Listening to your plights of love
Like my heart isn't breaking
Being your best friend
Like I'm not dying inside
I wish
Oh how I wish
I could go back
Back to when I didn't love you
Back to when things were easy
When I didn't want for more
I didn't crave you as I do now
Crave your affection
Your passion
Your love
I wish I could go back
Stop it before it began
I wish for things that are not possible
Things that could never happen
For ever l even if I were to go back
I couldn't change my falling for you
It was inevitable
How could it not be?
You are all things I long for
All things it seems I can't have
For I am the best friend
And that's all I'll ever be
The best friend in love
