I spend my time listening to you
Always there encouraging- a year and a half
I respect you, your decisions
I am your friend!

I am there for you
You leave me
I believe in you
You ignore me.

How kind and loving I am
Treated like nothing
I question our relationship
It is…nothing?

All because I said I like you
You freaked out
I never said I wanted a relationship
But you don’t see that.

I like you as a friend,
Is that so bad?

I admire you in many ways
I keep a close eye because I care
You’re like a young child
So needy and greedy

I tell you my feelings
You still play
You tell me yours
I pull away

I invite you out
You shut me down!
I do this,
You’re missing out.

Am I so repulsive?
You go back and forth
Teasing and pushing-unresponsive

It doesn’t matter if I am good enough
Never wanted a relationship
To spend time with you

Even now I question
Confused and moving forward,

What am I doing?

With someone like you?


…


Nothing!
