• Leo
  wow!Im in a situation exactly like that right now. I really love the way you use your words. but,oh my god,100 percent my situation. Nice poem.
• Stephen
  I am going through the same situation. I have been best friends with my special someone now for 14 years and she is without a doubt the most important part of my life. I look forward to every moment I'm with her and my heart bleeds for her when were not together. The situation is how to tell her about all of this. I had an oppurtunity before when she approached me with this and I denied it then due to worry about if it didnt work. Now I hope that she feels the same way, I will use this poem to express my feelings to her that I am in love with her and would like to see it go further and if not well friends we are. Thanks
• heather

• Brittany
  Oh my gosh. Wonderful poem! this is exactly how I feel about my best friend. I get those i-like-you-as-more-than-a-friend signals all the time. I just wonder what could happen if one of us actually put aside our fears and took a risk.

• Cathy
  This poem really means a lot to me. I have a very good friend who I feel this way about. We had a thing once but he was married and I was young. We have never had the chance together but I think we both would like one. I know I would anyway, and I think deep down where he hides his feelings, he does too. We talk quite a bit, espeically when he is having a hard time with things, I am one of the first people he talks to about it. He was my first love and one of my best friends now. Thanks so much for writing it.
• hazel
  I share the same sentiments. Every words that has been written were very remarkable and at the same time very painful to read especially if the reader also experienced that kind of FRIENDSHIP where there were walls.
• Paul
  Love it! Wish I had written it :-)
• zabrina

• Cindy

• maggie

• Rami
  it's amazing
• JUDE
  This poem is unbelievable Diane Blue should be given an award, it's like she's physic or something. I can totally relate to this poem and my prob is I have a gf
• Tabitha
  This poem touches my heart. I am in the same exact situation, so I understand just exactly what this poem is about. I am in love with a very good friend, but i fear that if I tell him, he will run away. This poem really hits home for me. I hope the writer continues to give us such beautiful heart felt poems.
• Eileen
  love this poem~! i can totally relate to it. I am going thru this right now with a guy fren. however he is attached. with a gf.
• Bleu
  I love this poem. It said exactly what I feel.
• Shell
  I just loved this poem but it's so sad though. I can definitely relate. While I was reading this I felt the familiar knots in my stomach and reminded myself that I'm not going through this at the moment.
• Azk
  this poem has touched me so much. it's like what i'm going through right now. god bless you, for some reason i have now found comfort in our "friendship" :) thank you.
• angel
  I have been thinking of words like these to write to a special friend, your poem has captured the essence of what I have not been able to tell her. I have send it to her and who knows what this may bring, one can only say that this is either the beginning or the end
• Melissa
  Your situation looks so much like mine, this poem really touched me! Knowing that your best friend is actually more than that, but talking about a relationship might ruin it all . so just TRYING to be content with being "just friends" .
• Britt
  This poem is incedible. I felt as though my name and my best guy friends name should have appeared numerous times. I understand it's meaning so well. Crossing that line and having those feelings can be so hard to deal with, but you can't control the way your heart feels. Meeting the right guy is what I hope to do someday, in my heart I know I already have.
• Amy
  I liked the poem. I'm kinda in the same place. But we are to the stage we are kissing and holding hands. We have been friends for about five years. We are just trying to see if it could be more before we jump straight in and mess up the friendship we have. Take it slowly. It is working so far.
• Sad
  I can relate to you because i have this guy friend who i really would love to be more than friends but it is hard to say it than write it but i hope you and that person csn become more than friends. ¿Qué Tal?
• sweet
  hi, this poem reminds me so much of a friend. we have talked once before bout me and him. about when we see each other. but then we got scared and said things liek forget waht i said. i hope someday we stop doing that.
• Jonesy
  Your poem just touched me as I read it, it made so much sense of what i feel now about a girl and the things that go on between us. All those walls that surround both of us.
• Josh
  I'm meeting my "Friend" tomorrow to discuss our situation. This poem sums up exactly how i feel about her and how we are together (except for the eye colours!). Who knows what the outcome of our meeting will be but I'm glad I read this peom beforehand. This has helped me to realise and express my feelings. thanks.
• Rodney
  great work I enjoyed it greatly as it is what I am goin through at present with my best friend/flatmate.I have fallen for her and I know she has feelings there that she is so scared to let out.hope fully in time we will be together .again great poem Thank you .
• Charles
  I'm in this situation right and i want to be firends with that person, that person wanted more, by reading this it helped me a lot. thx! This poem is the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be.
• dan
  how can it not get any more true it sucks having that feeling when u want someone and find out 13 other guys want her too at the same time.
• Alese

• shelly
  I though this poem was beatiful. I know exactly what your saying1

• Kumar

• muchacha
  I know just hao you feel my friend and i can tell we like eachother but we are afraid to take a chance seeing as how we don't have many friends and our friendship is very important to the both of us.
• heather
  this poem is exactly how i feel about a friend of mine.
• Danny
  Excellent. Thats me right there talking to my friend!
• Emma
  Without this poem I wouldn't be going out with the most fabulous guy ever! We'd been denying how we felt for ages. But after I mailed this poem to him, we finally managed to step over the barrier we'd put between us and show each other how much we really cared. We're talking about getting engaged soon! Without this poem, my life could be so empty! Thank you so much!
• Sarah
  excellent poem... maybe we should take it a step further.. but we are all too scared
• lyssa
  beautiful and touching poem.it totally reflects my feelings when i fell in love with my friend.thank you for putting my thoughts and feelings into words.
• V16
  Something i can relate to, it is the best!
• Baby
  I could really relate to your poem. I am also in the same situation. This one guy was my best guy friend (not so much n/e more) and I have feelings for him. We can't be together because people are in the was of everything. That peom exactly evpresses what I feel inside.
• Marie

• Janice
  This poem reminds me of a time when my best guyfriend and I had a conflict in our friendship because I told him how I felt about him in a "loving" way and he didn't want to go further like that. I tried to move on with my own life after two weeks of conflict but he didn't want to let go of me because we have been best friends since we were elementary schoolers and it's hard to throw friendships away with old friends. If you have a best friend who is oppsite sex, just remember: it takes warmth, understanding and communication to stay together and in other words,"it takes thyme to grow old friends,..."
• Umer
  Hi ya, It pleasently surprised me that how come its possible that you write the words exactly reflecting my feelings to someone. I don't know what to say but its just great !
• Sarah
  Oh My Gosh, this poem sounds sooo much like me and my guy friend. I've always wished it could be more, and he also knows that too. It makes me cry to think that :(
• Marty
  this poem explains exactly how i feel about this guy! your a GREAT poet! good luck in the future;)
• Tom
  This is a wonderful poem that I absolutely loved. I could relate to it so much. I am in love with one of my best friends, but I just can't tell her how I feel. I'm too scared to leave her.. :(
• Nate
  This poem hits all to close to home. I still cannot understand why I cannot tell her how I feel even though we both know each other cares.
• fiona
  Thank You
• jennifer
  I sent this poem to a very good friend of mine. It really struck a cord in me and i thought she should know how i really felt.
• Samantha
  this poem describes a relationship i have with someone very special to me and i really enjoyed reading it.
• Ling
  Can relate well to the poem...I had a friend with whom I was very close with..to the extent of having another girl pal of mine to ask me if we were a couple. I wanted to be more than just friends, but he do not allow us to go beyond friendship. Reason being, he still cannot get over his ex-girlfriend. And sometime later, we had a misunderstanding and we have not spoken to each other since. I cannot bring myself to call him up for a talk, for there is no way I can look at him in the eye and say "Let's just be friends."
• Bill
  This poem is great. It totally relates to my situation
• Marinus
  Hey ... sometimes even guys weep at such perfect descriptions of their lives .... I know I did. Simply beautiful. Thank you so much!
• Freida
  I gave this poem to my friend and when he read he understood that maybe we did the right thing. It explained exactly how we felt and beyond his circumstances, he was able to express how he felt without having to put it in his own words
• Beth
  This poem is great!! One of my best friends is a guy (with blue eyes) and this poem describes our relationship perfectly!
• erika
  I though this was a great poem and it really describes what I feel for my best friend!
• Jeff
  This poem is all too real for me. Now if we can just figure out how to break down the walls.
• Lynnella
  I really love this poem because I am facing the same situation. I have had mixed feelings. Yet, after reading this poem I have the encouragement to be patient and perhaps one day soon, I and the one I love so much will be together once again.
• naomi
  this poems really explain about feeling that can really express how they feel. i kind of feel that way sometimes with a freind of mine. that we had to make sure that no one is around to hear what we talk about
• bri
  I know exactly how you feel.. this sounds so much like myself and a friend of mine that I work with..so it's hard
• renee
  great!
• Armin
  Great poem!, it is so true of someone who says they just want to be friends and there is more there than what they are willing to admit. Thanks.

  How some of these words feel so right when you describe a very special friendship, which are not allowed to be more.
• Mill
  i've felt the same way and i could't have put it in better words than you. Terriff!!
• nicole
  this poem I liked because it's telling my story and life between me and a really close friend.and it makes me realize alot of what you need to think about in these relationships
• Amanda
  It was a very good poem touched a place in my heart that is going through the same thing at the moment very real and truthful!
• virginia
  I feel this poem is very real. It's a reminder that we try to force the fact that we all need someone away rather than face our need to have someone to depend on rather than our own self. We'd rather avoid the pain than play the game and live life. It's better to have a little than nothing at all, the fantaisy gives usa safe palce to go.
• Jessica
  WOW! This was such a great poem. I have a friend that I always talk to everyday but we can't be more than friends because my ex is best friends with him and he doesn't want him to be hurt. So, I wish we could be together!:(
• laura

• Joe
  This sounds familiar. I enjoyed this poem because it happens just to be the case of me. Need I say More?
• Sarah
  My God. The first time I read this poem I cried my eyes out. It's SO perfect. My best friend IS a guy, with blue eyes, no less, and this poem describes our relationship better than anything else in the world.

• Jaz
  i live your poem myself, isn't that what a truly great poem is?
• Al
  Wish I had found this poem before I composed a letter expressing my feelings to "just a friend". This poem could've gone over better. No matter, I also sent this poem. Who knows if I ever will no how it was received. Oh well. Nothing ventured nothing gained. This poem sums up this "only friends" thing very well! Thanks

• Jeffrey
  I am in this exact situation and when I read this, my heart skipped a beat. This is one of the most beautiful pieces of work I have ever read.
• Abby
  Wow. For 7 years now I've been trying to find the right words to tell my friend how I've felt for him. you have read my thoughts like an open book. Thanks.
• Saul
  This poem is to true. How do you tell someone how you really feel, when all they see in you is just a "friend".
