I can't...I want to...

I have a bad feeling about this
I like you
I really like you.

I just can't stand the thought
of hurting my best friend.

Who knew that a show could tell me that it's not right?
Why can't it be right,
you give me the butterfly's
I can't even stop smiling.

I fell asleep with you on my mind last night.
"Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight
Just a touch of the fire burning so bright
No I don't want to mess this thing up
I don't want to push too far
Just a shot in the dark that you just might
Be the one I've been waiting for my whole life
So baby I'm alright, with just a kiss goodnight"

I heard this song and thought of you right away
I just can't choose you over her.
I know she hurt you
and broke your heart twice.

I don't wanna do this
I want to be in your arms forever
I want to be yours.

It's just not right
to hurt her.
I can't do this;
I can't be yours.

You don't understand the pain I have,
the pain of loving someone and not having the someone
because you know its the right choice.

Beautiful. To be honest I didn't expect to like the lyrical referrence in the middle, but by the end of the poem I felt more like I could understand and relate to the significance it held. All in all a very emotionally strong, easily relatable storyline with a nice and unique writing style. I really enjoyed this read :)
