Is it worth it

What if I lost you?

What if our friendshipC gets ruined?

What if we break each other’s heart?

 

 

I don’t knowH if I could risk it

Can I risk everRything we have?

For somethinIg that just might fail

 

 

What if everSything we have worked for?

GetsT destroyed

Because for a split Isecond

I caredA for you more than I should haveN

 

 

You’ve always beenC my best friend

I loveUd you like you were family

But what if that changes?

 

 

What if everythinNg people say about you and me

Comes true?

What if I start loving you?

EveTn worse

What if you love me back?

 

 

Is it worth risking our friendship?

Is it worth having things never go back to the way they once were?  

Is it worth falling for my best friend?

 

I just don’t know

Is it worth it?....

Author's Note

I have a best friend who I have known my whole life and I think he is starting to like me and peopel have always said he and I would end up together, and I am just not sure if it's worth risking our friendship for.

i was going through the similar situation , we were like family and used to share alot but unfortunately i fell for her in the end and at d end of this march we split we dont talk much anymore and still iam struggling to put it back on the path.may be someday it will become smooth again.all it need efforts.
i wish for the best for you,may be two of you would not need to say,you will understand itself,just patience is the key.

I thought this was a great poem. I have felt this way before but not letting it happen is what tore us apart. Take the chance, I will always wish I had.

great structure, but what does your heart say?

[hannah]

Interesting structure and straight to the point, this poem expresses an old dilemma that has existed between friends throughout eons. It displays your nature, how you seem to take caution with your actions and I believe that it's wise to do so. Thanks for sharing this.

A good friend is worth more then gold. Hard choices in the poem. I like the thoughts and the reaction at the end of the poem. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.

The flow could use just a bit of work but nevertheless this piece is a beautiful write and as _A Risen Heroine_ has said your work is exceptionally easy to feel close to. Great write :)

I once felt the same way, except from the love part, very relatable write, thanks for sharing.

Lovely poem. And good luck with your friend. The best relationships always start out as friendships, but I would just give it time.
