This is a poem to the guy I'm in love with, but I know doesn't love me back, and this is what I would give to him if I ever told him. (Which I doubt) He and I are EXTREMELY close, and we call eachother "twins" since we know eachother so well. It's really long, so bear with me! Comments ans such are appreciated, otherwise HAPPY READING!

Well, Here Goes Nothing!

Well,
Do you want a lie?
Or the truth?
If I tell you the truth,
Will you believe it?
Probably not,
You’ll need proof,
A heartfelt confession;
That I shall gladly give.
You wish to hear the truth?
Are you sure?
If you are,
Keep going;
And if not,
Just stop here.
Would you believe it?
If I told you,
That the normal me,
Is a lie?
A charade;
Making sure,
That you can’t see,
How I feel,
Or pretend not to.
Once I tell you,
You’ll ask why,
Why did I hide it?
Well the answer is simple,
I was scared;
Did you feel the same?
Probably not,
Why would you?
Being your ‘twin’ an all,
We’re close;
It would be awkward,
Would it not?
I’ve never been anything extremely special,
To anyone,
Least of all you,
You know this well.
I never want our friendship to end,
I need you to survive,
But once I know;
The answer to my question,
That my heart yearns to hear,
Whether negative,
Or positive,
We can work from there;
But for now,
I just need to ask you,
This question of which I speak,
In the poem of my life,
The last one I wrote for you;
Had a lie embedded into it,
In a way that you could not detect,
But here I go;
And friends we will remain,
No matter what comes our way,
What I’ve been trying to ask is;
Do you think you could like me?
Love me, if things went well?
Because this much I know,
I love you,
And I have for quite some time.
I know how all those people feel,
The ones who love,
But are too scared
To tell the person they love.
In fear,
Of being rejected;
And yes,
I know what love feels like,
It’s not this puppy love,
That everyone claims to have,
It’s true,
And quite impossible to forget.
All you want,
Is to be with them,
If that makes them happy;
And if it didn’t,
Then you would let them go;
Because true love,
Is based off compromise,
Their happiness comes first,
Then yours,
If there’s even time.
But for us,
There is no time for me;
Sure,
I love you,
And yes,
I always will,
But your needs come first;
So if I cannot make you happy,
Then so be it,
And I will let you go.
Go be with someone else,
Go be happy,
Fulfill your dreams,
Your fantasies,
And just remember,
That if you ever need a friend,
A sister,
Someone to listen,
Or anything you might need;
I’ll be there,
Waiting in the wings,
For the day
That I can comfort you,
As you have for me,
Hundreds upon thousands of times.
I’ll never let my feelings,
Get in the way,
Of your happiness,
And your needs;
We’ve sang this many a time,
“If you need me call me,
No matter where you are,
No matter how far”
These words are true,
From me to you;
Never hesitate
To ask,
Please;
Don’t hide your feelings;
Creating a shell,
A charade,
Trust me;
I know how it feels,
And it’s no good.
Be open,
I won’t be hurt by your words,
By your actions;
Do what you please,
And I will support you.
The cost to me does not matter,
All that matters,
Is you,
And your happiness;
So now you know,
That you
Hold the only key to my heart.
You are the only one,
With enough of my heart to break it;
But believe me,
I am strong,
So don’t be too careful;
It may exposed,
But it’s tough.
Do with it what you will,
Just remember,
I’ll be with you.
Wherever you may go,
Whoever you may decide to be with,
I support you,
I trust you,
And I always will.
But that’s beside the point,
I love you,
Truly,
Deeply,
Love you;
With all my heart,
Mind,
Body,
And soul.
My only question now is,
What will you do with it?
What will you do with my love?
Will you ignore it?
Or embrace it?
Just be sure,
That whatever you may do,
It’s the right decision;
For you,
And only you.
