When mere friendship says bye

hello, Have you ever struggled with falling in love with a friend, and despite the fact that it felt so right, it wrestled with a dislocated societal mores that one of love's deeper calls automatically violates friendship? I wrote this for you, not to share a lesson even though there might be one to learn, just to express a struggle which in my experience only stubborn prayer settles. You might identify.

When mere friendship says bye.

When shall we shake off the pretense,
Can't you see this is getting intense?
When will you see that as time passes by,
Mere friendship's said its byes,
We hang onto a mere friendship which is no longer here,
If you were more keen you would hear,
That something better than friendship calls,
It echoes in our many calls,
How much longer shall we hide behind this mask,
This friendship mask,
Friendship's morphed into its better self,
Mere friendship belongs to the archive shelf,
Though this is so surreal,
It is time to get real,
I love you so much,
The best attempt at describing,
Diminishes it.
