Tell Me Poem by Valarie Paterson

Tell me you dont love me
not to go away
Tell me were just friends
not to stay the hell away

Tell me that you have no feelings for me
that when Im around,
you dont get butterflies
that when I speak,
you dont feel shy but happy
that when im sad,
you dont want to comfort me
and feel sad too

Just dont tell me
in a harsh way
ignoring this 'issue'
wont make it go away

All I can say, is that
hurtful words wont make me stay away
so being mean will get you nowhere

Just tell me you dont feel for me
the way I feel for you
and all I ask is
will you be my friend
through it all
till the end?
