They said it was love...

The night is so still

The moon, overshadowed by the clouds of despair and

Even when the sun rises,

I know my state will remain beyond repair.

You came into my life unexpectedly

In you I found a companion to rely on,

Whenever darkness dawned upon

You proved yourself to be a bliss

And now that apart we are torn,

I realize where the step was missed.

They said our friendship was beyond platonic

They said it was love, and unfortunately we believed in what they said

And then they disapproved, isn't it ironic?

And now the relationship that was never LOVE, is dead

 

You were my best friend and I yours

I wish I didn't have to but now,

I regret the unwillingly gifted chocolate boxes and flowers.

I wish it had stayed at level one

Where silly jokes and endless teasing were done

The so called ‘love’ was awkward

I know it was just friendship

That never should have gone that forward

It made the jokes serious and the teasing offending and the biggest impact…

It left you wondering and me crying

On what went wrong and why?

The ‘love’ was a wrong call

It became the reason behind our downfall.

That thing tried working at our friendships cost

That’s why you, who were my gain, became the greatest friend that I lost!

Let’s come back together and try turning the course of time,

Let’s go back to the besties we were

Where everything was just fine

Because the sky is missing the star who could brighten up my day

By just saying, “My friend! Hey!”  :’)
