Only You Can

You want to know him
You want to know if you want more
Than to just be friends.

I try to tell you
“You have to try”
“You must overcome.”
But you say you can’t.

How do you know,
If you don’t try?

It’s hard
To take a chance.

It’s hard
To take that leap.

It’s hard
To risk it all.

But how will you know
if you want more
if you don’t know
what being friends
with him
feels like?

I mean, I don’t know
What it’s like.

If anything,
You know him better than I do.

But you still want to know.

You have to go find
What you want.

I can’t do it,

Only you can.
