About the Poem

It's hard being in love with your best friend. It's even harder to let go when you realize you were destined to be "just friends."

Not Meant To Be

There once was a time if I just closed my eyes,
I could see us together as one.
But after these years of growing apart,
I can see that dream is done.
You were the one who knew me inside and out,
And always knew just what to say.
Any problems I had would disappear,
When you said it would all be okay.
There was always a special connection with us,
And these days it seems to be gone.
Whatever we had died a long time ago,
But it's just so hard to move on.
Those times I'd drown in the blue of your eyes,
You never noticed a thing.
There were nights I laid awake and thought,
Of the love our friendship could bring.
No matter how hard I've been trying,
The truth is so hard to see.
I guess it takes a while to let go,
Of something not meant to be.

That poem touch a lot and i like it. It's about what i suffer. I love a boy named Mervin i think but not sure that he always tell the truth he says he love me and then people has started to warned me that he was playing with my love. then i left him with the hope that one day he'll realize how deap my love was for him. But instead he wanted to remain friend i can't bare to see him with other girls. that's why i like that poem.
