Thoughts of You - Changing Faces

My days and nights were cold and hurting.
I was lost out in the night wandering and searching
for heaven's light.

I saw the night sky clearing
when you spread your wings cloaked in the aroma of…
friendship..
An aroma so sweet and alluring…
But little did I know
what joy you would bring

From that moment on; I knew a storm was brewing.
a friendship we did start you seemed to kissed away my tears
and sheltered my heart with your charm.

I felt blessed the day God sent you to be my comforter when
solitude and seclusion was my future.
But then I grew fearful; realizing that I had allowed the
Unthinkable and unimaginable…
I had fallen in love..or so it seemed.

Trying to express the sensation I get when you touch my hand..
the commotion of my heart when I hear your voice..
the beaming, blinding smile that spreads across my face when I see you…
makes this worse…and extremely difficult.

Now, lost in a sea of total disarray..and what do you say?
You said… “you love me”… love me?
Nooooooooooooooooooo…say it isn’t so.


Our friendship..
so pure and untarnished with the desires of the flesh..

How?

What?

Why?

When?

I was sure I was careful and so precise about the
distance between your heart and mine.

You ask what’s next for us? Where do we go from here?

With a humble soul..modest heart and heavy words

My only reply is…nowhere.

See, I am IN LOVE with someone else..
If I could forget him; Lord knows I would.
But its just not that easy for me..

I thought I did all the addition, subtraction
and division of separating love and friendship..
But;
Platonic love is always a part of any close friendship
Fully aware that this type of love doesn’t always..
STAY platonic..

But, I love that man!

I cried for a friendship I thought honesty had destroyed
But, then I felt your warm, gentle hand…
You then whispered in my ear
that by my side you'll forever stand.
