Crushed

Don’t tell me we are “only friends” –
don’t say those ugly words to me.

I’ve spent a sunset in your arms,
and traded stories, loves, and charms.
I’ve shared with you my heart and mind,
and thought your shared your own in kind.

I journeyed through the nights with you,
believing that our love ran true…
I gave my love; I gave my all!
Why must I watch our kingdom fall?!

Don’t tell me we are “only friends”
when I just want to be your “only.”
