She told me she has a thousand friends,
But out of a thousand friends,
She had one that stood out
J B Moore Mar 2019
Call me ugly, call me dumb
Say I’m boring and no fun.
You can say that I’m a mess,
You don’t have to be impressed.
Just tell me that I’m lazy,
You can even say I’m crazy,
‘Cause it may be somewhat true.
But please, whatever you do
Don’t tell me I’m too sweet,
That my company’s a treat.
Don’t say that I’m too nice a guy
That’s not a reason why.
If you’re not interested that’s fine,
Rather stay friends? Well, I don’t mind.
You could let me down easy,
Or you can say I make you queasy,
Just give me a reason, even blame it on fate
Just don’t blame it on one of my positive traits.
We’re all deeply flawed, you can take your pick
Just don’t choose something I don’t need to fix.

I've known him forever
From that first day he waved through his window
To now when I can tell what he wants to say with a glance at his eyes
He's the reflection I see when I look in my mirror
Our minds always in sync
Even when we're miles apart
We have conversations with one look

I understand the littlest of his moves
From the slight raise of his brows when he's tensed
To the flex in his toes when he's mad
I have every bit of him memorized like my old favorite song
Fighting him was like getting stuck in a maze with no way back except the one leading to him
I know all the nooks and crannies of his heart
What makes it pound and what makes it squeeze

And I sure felt it do both that day
And I knew it wasn't for me
And realisation punched me in the stomach

I loved him!

Always have, always will
But that heart beats for another
I hate myself whenever you hug me beside you
Squeezing my hands and telling her you love her

The face I could paint even in my sleep became one I dreaded like the plague
Because that wave was no longer mine
That smirk no longer for me

I realized then why they say a boy and girl can't be friends
What Friend zoning meant
Because then I understood that
I found my soulmate, but he didn't.

It hurts like hell to be Friendzoned especially when the other party Knows nothing of your existing feelings

Pagibig ko lang ang meron ko sayo o sinta
Ang natatanging meron ko na hindi ko maiwawala
Ginusto ko man o hindi
Ibinibihag mo parin ako sa iyong mga ngiti
Binuhay mo ang puso ko
Inintindihan ko nalang ang nararamdaman mo, na...
Gusto mo ako dahil magkaibigan tayo
~CBGJ
Tula para sa mga taong na friendzone ng minihal nilang bestfriend
Nakikiramay ako sa mga feelings niyong namatay

Don't say it
I can feel each word
Last time we had this conversation ,every word you said slit my veins
Felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest
So don't say them
Don't say you love me but as a friend
Don’t say you don’t want to loose me
Just don’t say it

She calls me best friend
Every hurt and every pain is referred back to the friendship we have.

Hours never go by without my screen having her name written all across it, amongst others, she stands out.

Heart races and as I cross my finger over the finish line of opening the text just to find out she needs to talk.

This is it.
I’ve played this moment over and over in my head, boy doesn’t she know how prepared I am to profess.... this love

She starts texting and it’s taking a bit longer than forever. Time somehow managed to slow down...

“There’s this guy
He’s a stand up guy
He’s so respectful and he treats me like a Queen.
He makes me feel good about myself and he calls me beautiful too many times to count
I tell him everything and he tells me everything and I’d never seen him in this light but now...”

Man, I knew it
I’m a stand up guy
I respect her wishes almost like they’re mine.
I’ve always seen myself as the King to her Queen. She’s the royalty to dynasty
I tell her she’s beautiful too often to count but if I did.... it wouldn’t make sense to time, because you’d think my vocabulary is only riddled with the phrase, “You’re so beautiful.”

I tell her everything, everything except how I feel about her. I’ve always seen her as a light to my love. That doesn’t make sense but I see the light, and she’s it. I see her...

“He makes me feel safe. I can tell him anything.”
I know. I try my best to make you feel this love.

“He’s handsome and his laugh is so cute and he gets so annoyed with me for saying so.”
She says that all the **** time and it gets on my nerves.

“I feel like I can’t ... live without him..”
And I can’t live without you too....

My response to her text is
“Well, why don’t you tell him...?”


“That’s the thing”, she says...

“I did, and he told me he sees me as just a friend.”

“I guess that’s how you see me too.”

Ends chat...

You fell once, and I couldn't catch you,
So I waited at the bottom like the selfish, ******* sea.

Naghihintay sa gitna ng kalawakan
Umaasa na iyong pagbigyan
Baka pwede kahit isang saglit
Tayo'y lilipat at iiwanan ang sakit

You shot me with bullets that weighed me down, from your lofty position above that wall, you look me in the eyes and take a shot for each stone I reach for in my climb. Leaving me in the friend zone was unfair enough, but these bullets weigh more than their equivalent in rejection...but there you go again, aiming for another shot of "he's just a friend. " noah_arkenswagg

Treating me wrong
While I’m treating you right
You say we’re friends
But that’s a lie

I don’t know why
I keep hanging on
Maybe cuz if I didn’t
I’d be all alone

You told me that
I’m your only friend
Supposedly we were friends
Until the end

But I saw you
With another guy
Enjoying yourself
Like you were about to die

Best friends, huh?
Well, I beg to differ
We’re not best friends
Not even a little

I tried, yeah, I tried so hard
To trap you in my broken heart
But you pushed me, yeah, you pushed me away
What is wrong with you? What do I say?

Goodbye? Yeah, that’s what I’ll say
I’m done playing this romantic game
See ya, I’m out of here
I’ll be gone before you start to tear
Best friend
