Your Friend Forever

"You're the best person I know,
The truest friend to have existed,
I trust you more than I do myself,
You shall always be a dear friend."

These were the words you told me,
As you were crying on my shoulder,
When a crazed lad broke your heart,
You loved him, he simply lusted you.

As I wipe the tears from your face,
I feel something I had suppressed,
Suppressed deep for a long time,
I felt my heart yearn for yours.

As you regained your own reserve,
My mind battled with my heart,
Should I tell you the hidden truth,
Or should I keep it hidden still?

"You bring joy to my heart,
Just by lending me your ear,
You are my faithful friend,
Stay with me till time ends."

My mind told my heart,
Be silent, be still, stir not!
Your question is answered,
Be silent forever, as a friend.
