In the Middle
To be in the middle of this,
Should I be a friend
Or should I be more?
Being your friend is wonderful,
But being your lover is a beautiful blessing.
I'm scared, I'm confused, I'm torn;
It's so difficult to show you both
Without full commitment to the other.
Do I help you because you're my friend
Or because of the deeper care I have for you?
Should I take your kindness as just that
Or because you feel this connection as well?
Why must I choose between the two?
I'd be your lover and friend,
But at the moment I can only be one
And I cannot choose between the two.
