Best friends. That's all
we are, according to you. I've told you multiple
times that I like you, yet you continue to say we're
best friends. It kills me inside everytime I hear you say
it, because I know that you don't want anything more.
I'm tired. Tired of trying to convince myself
you're going to come around. Tired of explaining to
everyone that we're "just
friends." Tired. This relationship is draining my
energy. I have to work way too hard to make sure I'm not
coming across as too flirty, or act too much like all the
other stupid girls that love you, too. But you know what?
They might love you, but I love YOU. I love all parts
of you. I love the parts that you don't show everyone. I
love the parts of you that only I know about, and those
other girls don't. It hurts me that you seem to
take our friendship for granted. But I understand.
I realize that friends is all you want, and being a friend
to you is better than being nothing to you. And even though
it kills me, I'll stop waiting for you. I'll stop
waiting for you, but I will never, ever, stop loving
you.
