She* worries I will take him away from her.
I worry he will fall for me.
He worries he will loose our friendship.

Here I am in front of you
Waiting for things you have unsaid
Don't show actions, don't show clues
If you want me gone, just tell me so

I don't know why I haven't heard of you
All I know is my heart broken by you
With all the happy memories we have  been through
If you want me out of your life, just tell me so

Without any sincerity apology from you
I know in my heart I have forgiven you
You have choose to live your life without me anymore
Just one goodbye; just tell me so
goodbye broken friendship move-on heartbreaks bestfriend
It's being around people;
And being all alone.
Everyone is together and happy,
There's loudness of the words and fun they have.
In a way I wanted to be alone,
But I also wanted to stay and see.
It's standing in a room watching life and it's happenings
Without being involved.

Together with people is to be alone
(When your few friends aren't around).
By yourself you're stuck wanting
To be with someone now.

But there's too many memories,
They fill too much of the space.
I look to the distance and can see them replay,
Just like how they say you can have out of body experiences.
I was more than happy;
Even when I could be sad.
These times fill my heart with passion,
Just in order to break it truly apart.

It's like everywhere I go,
I see them and what we did.
I seem to see the thoughts and the feelings,
But that's if I ever really did.
Today I endured an hour of memory replay,
Was asked if I was okay twise,
Then went home not knowing my thoughts or emotions
Being wound up in confusion for at least three hours straight.

I don't know how to deal with this,
When I've already hated one fake friend so much.
Now it seems it's all been used up.
I can't have my thoughts in the same way,
Because they were not meant to end like the last.
If it was as good as we thought it was,
None of us would let it get this bad,
If what happened didn't;
We could've tried to fix anything.
Anything else.

But we didn't let it get this bad.
To my real friend in this: you have done no wrong.
It was all of the others.
They somehow did this,
But to say this before would have sounded and felt so wrong.

Time heals does it?
I guess we'll have to wait and see,
However as of the last time,
Time and distance still doesn't seem to be working for me.
I still hopelessly hope to wake up,
And let it all be a horrible dream.
Call me melodramatic I don't care, I understand so no one else really needs to.

I'm ready to burst into laughter
This really brightens my day
And so every class thereafter
Goes just exactly my way

"Accidentally" moving my arm
Then waiting for me to return it
I fear it's doing both of us harm--
This game has got us out-witted

Kicking my foot from under the table
Gets a real kick outta me
And you'll know I'm actually able
To play along the way it should be
If anyone has suggestions to replace the line "This game has got us out-witted" with, I would be very grateful.

I wanted to include this in the "Best Friends" series but I feel like it should stand on its own.
The one you can joke around with
The one you can pretend to be in love with
The one who can never offend you
The one you can be yourself around
The one who doesn't pressure you
The one who encourages you to join in
The one you get progressively weirder with
The one you think of when they're not there
The one you would always defend
The one you would give up your life for
**The one who would do the same
There might be a slight exaggeration.
It started out
With a wave
Of the hand
And has turned
Into friendship
So strong
As to make
Every evil crumble
With a wave
Of the hand
I'm weary of writing short poems but I keep forgetting how meaningful a few words can be.
Comfortable
Talkative
Sensible
Intuitive

                  Witty­
                  Daunting
                  Giddy
             ­     Flaunting

                                       The best one
                                        I could pin
                                        Is second-to-none
                                        Win-win
Just a fun little rhyme I thought up when I was in a good mood.
What makes best friends?
Is it the duo that outwardly click together
Or the unexpected secret bond between outcasts?
What even determines best friendship?
The time spent together laughing and growing
Or the depth in which we laughed and grew together?

Should we even dare to do so much as to
Claim one person as our favorite?

Are best friends there all the time
Or there for all the problems?
Could best friends be comfortable with
The shallow stuff or the meaningful stuff only?
Could someone's best friend not think of the other
As their best friend?
Does a best friend need to be someone you
Talk to in person only?
On computers only?
Or a mixture of both?
Gahhh! I know this isn't poetic in the slightest, but I don't like to edit. Ever. Unless I purposely have some changes in mind (which I don't in this case).

If anyone has answers to these questions, say so. I'm drawing a blank.

How could I be this dumb
Dumb to think I would be any different
Different from the other girls
Girls that you've kissed
Kissed with no passion
Passion I so desperately crave

On this drunken night
Night filled with lust and want
Wanting to be loved
Loved in a way different than a friend
Friends is how you see us
Us, being an us is what I so desperately crave

Glint of mischief in your eyes
Eyes that boar into mine
Mine swell with happiness
Happiness that can only be felt
Felt with your kisses
Kisses I so desperately crave

"It was a mistake, I'm sorry"
I'm sorry too, sorry that I fell for you
You broke my heart without another look
Look away while I put on a fake smile
Smile to hide the pain
Pain that I so desperately crave

We used to be best friends
Best friends that shared everything
Everything is what you are to me
Me, just me, boring and plain
Plain and simple you don't love me
Love me the way I so desperately crave

I crave your passion
I crave an us
I crave your kisses
I crave the pain
I crave your love
Does that make me desperate?

best friends can break your heart too and just as a lover might you are going to cry.
constricted chest, you are going to walk swiftly past her like she was never the one who sat in the car next to you as you cried into your knees.
you left a sweatshirt at her house and she borrowed your favorite book.
these are things you arent going to ask to have back because maybe she'll ask for you back.
you have matching names on tumblr and both of you are waiting for the other to change it to something else.
remember when you walked home with her and you picked flowers and laced them through each others hair,
remember how you two were always changing but always at the same time,
remember how she was the only one who knew how to handle your emotions.
she is gone now, and youre not exactly sure why.
maybe she needs space.
maybe you have been replaced.
maybe you became too much,
maybe she changed but this time you didnt,
maybe it was just time to let go.
either way your heart is broken and there is no one there to sit next to you in the car as you cry into your knees.
i lost my best friend
