A friend that i never got...

I didn't know you when we met,

I couldn't understand.

Mistook you for my driving force,

My only helping hand.

Thought that there was none better,

Than this person i had found.

For you i could sacrifice anything,

Even my existence on this ground.

Have you ever sat on a winter evening,

And seen the lazy ocean hug the shore?

That's the closeness i felt for you,

And i wanted nothing more.

You said you'll be my best friend,

And i got all my silly hopes high.

How was i to see through all this pretence,

And know that all this was one big lie.

I wanted you to know everything,

Anything that could be shared.

If you had no intention of ever liking me,

why did you act as if you cared.

Why didn't you tell me the truth,

"Why" is all i ask.

Why don't you end it for once and all,

Please take off this mask.

Sometimes i feel its better to end this journey,

And start saying our goodbyes.

But then past memories fill up my heart,

And finally splash out through my eyes.

I still smile thinking about you,

You rest in my every thought.

I thought you were the best possible friend i could ever get,

When, in fact, you were a friend that i never got.
