You Say You Want to Be Just Friends

Alpha List Love Poems Sad Poems About This Site Poems for Free Copyright by Nicholas Gordon

You say you want to be just friends, But do you mean goodbye? Is that the easy way to end The wish without the why? You owe me nothing, as I owe You equally, and yet There's something in the undertow I cannot just forget. There's something lovely like a song That's waiting to be heard, Or like the feelings that belong To some unspoken word. And so with you I cannot simply Smile and stay aloof. I take the risk of asking frankly For the untold truth.
