What is it that I'm feeling?
Platonic affection?
Romantic love?

When I look in your eyes,
What is it that I'm feeling?
A maternal urge to protect you?
A lustful instinct to kiss your nose?

When I see you my heart softens,
Your voice is the air's lightest caress,
Oh, friend, oh, friend,
Best friend of mine,
Is it wrong that I want you to be mine?

I wouldn't mind our lips touching,
Cheeks brushing,
Face's flushing,

But you are my greatest friend,
The friend that holds ownership of my heart,
My wanting for you,
Could damage it all,

What to do?
What to do?

Am I simply confusing,
A friend's love?
And a partner's love?
Or do I really want you?

I would die for you, dear friend,
As long as you know that

I want to live for you, dear friend,
As long as you know that

I love you, my greatest friend
Romantically, maybe?
Platonically, maybe?
Love is pure, eitherway.
