In Love With A Friend Poem by louis rams

Can you believe it? That I’ve fallen
So deeply in love with you
That I don’t know what to do.
We’ve always considered each other just friends
And we knew each others most deepest secrets
And wants and needs.

Now I look at you in a different way
And with you I want to stay.
I believe your feelings are starting to change for me
It is something that I’m hoping to see.

I’ve always felt your joys and pains
And I know “ that “ will never change.
When we are walking down the street
My heart begins to flutter
And my knees get weak.

My heart is pounding rapidly in my chest
Never slowing down -never taking a rest.
You have a smile that brightens up the day
You have a smile that takes the pain away.

So many people go through this same thing too
But I never thought that it would happen to me or you.
Now I find myself in a situation that’s tearing me apart
Should I keep quiet “or” follow my heart.

All I would need would be a sign from you
And you can bet your life that I’ll follow thru.
Now when you look at me there’s
a different spark in your eyes
Leaving me bewildered and hypnotized.
But until you tell me differently
Your friend I will always be.
But my heart is crying and in so much pain
And I know I’ll never be the same.
