Forget.

I try to forget. I try my best with a smile. The thing is you didn't promise me anything. You offered a hand of friendship. However it changed when secrets were released. Friendship evolved. It blossomed like a tulip. Until that tulip decided to become frozen. Frozen in my feelings I felt for you. The tulip remains frozen until you decide to chip it open or someone else awakens it with a kiss. It's hard when I want that kiss to be yours. However you have an appetite for a different flower. You want your lips on a nearby rose. The worse is I can't use anger to hide my feelings because I can't be angry with you. It's not my fault you don't want to unfreeze my tulip. It's not your fault either. It's just the way it is.
