I only wanted my Friend

Love felt but friend betrayed and left

I remember the day
Which was the big day of my life,
I was hoping for something special.

It was birthday
But my parents' quarrel
Made it a sad day!

There's a negative side
Of being a single child.
I wished for someone
To feel my pain inside.
I posted a status update
Saying "feeling sad"
You saw and read my words.

Ten days later,
You came to my house
And took me to the mall.
You had arranged a belated
Birthday party for me.
I asked,"Where's my gift?"
You replied,"What do you want?"
I smiled and said,"Only a few minutes,
From your daily routine."
You promised to me that day,
"Our frienship shall last forever...
I will never leave you alone..."

You and me rarely talked in school.
You were a shy guy and me a calm girl.
Both are single child
Both share painful past.
I thought you and me
Are made for each other.
Time passed and I started liking you.
You used to appreciate my uniqueness,
I remember.

How foolish!
Melted away by compliments...
Just like that?
That day when I wanted to tell you
How I feel,
You said you didn't like the topic.
Silly that I expected you to listen to me.
Silly that I tried to speak my heart out
To my 'Friend'.

Just see my stupidity,
I thought--
"You are so innocent,
Not corrupted by today's world.."
To whom everyone is good
Such an optimistic you are,
So pure and kiddish
Who don't want to hear about 'love';
An adult word.
Not prepared to understand a woman's heart!

You were angry
And I spent hours trying to apologize
For a crime I didn't commit.
I cried for a whole week
Thinking you will forgive me...
I felt guilty for hurting an innoncent guy.
I couldn't forget
Couldn't accept the fact that you stopped
Replying to my messeges!

Days passed away...
A month later you came to see
My condition.
You said you knew everything,
Actually...
You were testing me!

Testing me?
Really?
For what?
I-I thought you were innocent
A guy unique from others!
It's ok not to feel the same way
But why did you spoil our friendship?

Few more days later
I came to know that
You are in love with another girl.
You stopped contacting me
Forever.
Why?
You were my best friend!
