Why Can't We Be?

By: Cheryl A Tagmeyer

He says I'm good
As a person and a friend
But that's all I am to him.

Nothing more and nothing less
I'm just a friend
And he thinks it's best.

But why me?
I don't think it's fair
Why can't we have something there?

I like him
And he says he likes me too
So why don't I do?

He's a friend that I can trust
And that's a must
But between us there is more than lust.

The feeling I have when he caresses my skin
It let's me know I can be safe with him
While I'm in his arms.

But why am I alone?
Someone please tell me
Just give me a reason...
Why we can't be?
