Array ( [sid] => 148998 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => it cannot be [time] => 2009-04-08 22:10:46 [hometext] => I told him I loved him, he's gay, he's my best friend [bodytext] => I hear those words
They're pounding in my ears
I can't believe I spoke them
To you
Your face is confused
My face is bright red
It cannot be
You said that to me
I felt the tears come
Though they did not fall
I knew it was coming
I had braced myself
But now I feel numb
My best friend
That's what you were
Gay
That's what you are
How stupid I feel
Thinking, hoping, maybe it could be
Now you avoid that topic
And half of me is happy
But the other is depressed
I still smile to you
We still laugh and chat
But there's a sort of wall
Sitting between us
Taunting me
How could I have done this
To myself?
To you?
The words still ring clear
It cannot be
My heart breaks again
Every time my mind replays them
Yet I cannot stop them
I still haven't cried
I can't bring myself to cry
This is my fault
I brought it upon myself
It cannot be, I knew that
But something inside told me to take a chance
To take a risk
And now I stand
Hiding in the shadows of my room
That sad song playing on a loop
I cannot cry
I want to cry
But the tears do not form
They do not fall
Something in me is broken
I cannot eat
I only sit and stare
You text me, you call me
You act like nothing happened
But yet my heart cannot forget the words
It cannot be
I try to forget
Try to move on
But something in me keeps me somber
Keeps me sad
Force a smile just for you
Force a laugh and act unbroken
Can you see through the mask?
My heart is heavy with the unshed tears
I will keep on smiling
Just for you
Through the pain, through the sadness
I'll smile only for you
Even though deep inside
I know
It cannot be [comments] => 3 [counter] => 250 [topic] => 32 [informant] => DesolantDreamer [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

So sad, but as long as your stills friends, you should stop beating yourself up, and enjoy your friendship.

The thoughts that come to me are, there's more than on kindda luv. Many times sex changes that so just hang in there and be a good friend.
I know it's hard on you but friends is really a big thing. Just be grateful you still have a treasured friend.
Huggs, blessings,
emy
Oh yea, great writing.

very good writing. I have to agree with everyone else. Be thankful that you still have a friend that you can go to whenever you them and they are willing to do anything for you. Sometimes friendship is better than anything else. Because without friends where would any of us be. I have heard those dreaded words countless times..."It cannot be" and I know the pain that you feel. But all in all I can say that I am thankful for those words from time to time because if it was to go any farther, take that next big step, I could have very well lost a friend...and nowadays friends are to hard to come by. Especially the true friends. Great writing like I said before...In the end its all worth the pain. Just hang in there.
