forgive me for things
that I've tried not to say
when our friendship
stood all that it could
and forgive
all the times
when I held back
my heart
full well
knowing
the pain
you withstood
I cannot forget
that our choice
meant regret
in denying a
love force
so strong
Just forgive me for
having ignored
all those times
when I realized
without you
I cannot
belong
all of yesterday's
plans we performed
hand in hand
our resistance could not
stand a chance
yet it's
you
that I long for, my
soulmate my
friend since your eyes
captured mine
in that first
passing
glance.

you've captured something special here... in simple words a complex emotion... pure and hurting and good.
