When You Don't

For some reason I can't let go

I recently decided

That unrequited love isn't the worst

That there's even deeper pain

That comes from almost

When you like someone

And they like you

So you spend your days in awe of each other

Adoring, affectionate 

Falling even deeper than the friendship

But never acting

Never going that extra step

And somehow

Tragically

The friendship fades

Didn't break

No one is left with a broken heart

Just with a heart full of wonder

Unanswered questions 

Wondering what could've been

Reminded every time you pass

Never allowed to be forgotten

Just carried around
