Dear....... Someone,

I sit next to you and I hold my breath. You look at me and I can hear my heart start to pound in my ears. Every word I say, every move I make around you... I've contemplated for hours. They say I seem casual... but this is anything but. I move closer, I breath a little of the same air you do... And I'm happy. But not really. Because all I am to you is a friend. But you... You are my everything. I don't sleep anymore without seeing your face. I can't sit still for half a second without a thought of you. I crave you... But in the most innocent of ways. I crave your hand in mine, the freedom to just adore you, your head resting on my shoulder as we watch the sunset. I crave being with you. I crave hearing your voice, and the sound of your laughter. I crave the sight of your smile, your eyes. I crave being able to whisper that I love you into your ear. But... you? You friend-zoned me. I love you.... And I suppose you love me too... But it's not the same. I wish... But that's okay. You're my friend and I'd rather be there as a friend than not at all. So, my best friend, I will always be here for you. Know that I care more about you than almost anyone else on this planet.  Know that you are amazing.

                                                                                                                                      Sincerely,

                                                                                                                                        A friend of yours, sadly...
