He was my best friend

Someone to whom I could rely on

Our love burned with purpose

But he was a waterfowl and I was a swan

I loved him deeply

And I knew that we made sense

But I never felt an everlasting passion

Whence I was alone with him

Late night drives

And afternoon chats

How could I not want him

How could I’ve not wanted it to last

Even if I had loved him

He was never the one

It was a bonded friendship

That was just meant for fun

Yet he still means something

To my heart and to me

So how could I keep this secret

From him, you see

How could I tell him

That I was destined for another

How could I tell him

That I’m in love with his brother
