Just a Friend
I watch him as he holds her
and caresses her soft skin.
I was once the lucky one,
but now I'm just a friend.
He doesn't mean to hurt me,
he tells me all the time.
He doesn't know it kills me
that he's no longer mine.
I know I should be thankful
it ended without pain.
But why does it break my heart
every time I hear her name?
Then it finally happened.
She broke his heart in two.
He cried on my shoulder,
and I knew what I had to do.
It was hard but I convinced her
to give him another try.
Their puppy love fades all too soon,
but my true love never dies.
