As I sit here with thoughts
running through my head.

Some that are happy and others that are dead.

While my feelings come out,
And I let it be known.

I get sorry my dear,
You reached the friend zone.

A place i have been
so many times before.

Because of my feelings for someone,
I love and adore.

As I sit here staring,
out into the lake

I don't know how much more
disappointment I can take.

They say I'm a friend,
that can never be beat.

For the women I choose everythings on repeat.

I do all I can
and even a bit more.

For those I cherish,
love and adore.

As I sit here and wonder,
I think to myself.

Is it time to give up,
And put my love ulon a shelf.

Should I give up looking,
and just be that special  friend.

No matter how hard I try, that's usually where I end.

As I sit and stare,
into the dark of night.

Did I give it my best,
should I put up a fight.

I sit here and seek guidance,
from anyone above.

With help finding a friendship,
that turns into Love.

Even if I sit here for hours on end,
I'll get the same story you're only a friend.

As I sit here and wonder,
how it can be.

Am I doing something wrong,
or is it just me.

Live
Love
Hope
