inspired by a book I read, but I've seen this in action so many time- even lived through it as I'm sure other people have to- on the one side or the other.


this friend of mine

This friend of mine,
whom I love,
and who loves me
just more than I'd like.

To selfish
to tell him
goodbye,

I know
it hurts him-
to see me love
another man

I do love him-
as a friend,
a dear friend.
as a brother

And I'm
to selfish
to say goodbye
