I Bet You Don't Even Know This Poem is About You

I Bet You Don't Even Know This Poem is About You

You pass thru my thoughts all the time.
I see you everyday,
And it just gets harder.
And harder.
You lead me on,
Only to play with my heart.
Do you even realize what that does to me?
Answer:
No, no you don't, and it tears me apart.
You don't realize this because you like this with all girls;
You don't realize this because that's just the way you are;
You don't realize this because you don't know how I feel.
Because I don't tell you;
Because I'm protecting myself.
But it doesn't matter –
It hurts anyway.

I love the way you say my name;
Your voice,
It lingers.
But with it comes that pain.

I love the way your skin touches mine;
How it feels when you hug me.

I love the way you make me smile;
How you brighten up my day when it gets cloudy.

I wish it all meant more,
But,
I know,
It doesn't.

All we ever were,
Ever are,
And ever will be,
Are just friends.

And the sad thing is,
You don't even know that this,
This poem,
Is about you.
