In the Middle

I don’t know what I would do without you around. I always smile when I hear your name or see your face. You are always able to lift me up. You bring out the best in me and that is what makes you a great friend.

But I can’t help wanting more. Our conversation keeps replaying in my mind and I wish things turned out differently. No matter how hard I try I can’t stop thinking about you. I am so sick of being upset about this it drives me crazy.

I want to be more than friends, but friendship is all you want. So I am stuck in the middle. Between needing your friendship and sick of being sick of you.
