The feelings are still there.

The feelings are still there,
I can’t deny it,
We said that we’d be better off just as friends,
Too many arguments for a healthy relationship.
Yet every time I’m in your presence, every time we lock eyes,
Those feelings of warm summer days make their way back into my heart.
Once upon a time,
You were my whole life,
Now you are just another person who I must pass off as one of my friends.
You told me that you would love me all the same,
Yet we hardly talk,
Our hugs are limp,
Our passion is dead.
Once a blooming flower,
Now a singed twig.
I loved you once,
I love you still,
You were my future, my life, my reason to smile.
The feelings are still there,
I can’t deny it.
