FAVOUR..!

11th grade as I sat there in the English class,
I stared at the girl next to me,
She was my so called 'best friend',
I stared at her long, silky hair and wished she was mine....
But she didn't notice me like that and i knew it.
After class, she walked upto me, and asked me for the notes she had missed the day b4.
I handed them to her. She said thanx and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know that I dnt want to be just frnz.
I love her but I am just too shy and I dont knw why.

12th grade. The phone rang. On the other end it was her.
She was in tears, mumbling on and on abt hw her love had broke her heart.
She asked me to come over coz she didnt wanna be alone.
So I did.
As I sat next to her on the sofa, I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine...
After two hours, one Drew Barrymore movie and three bags of chips,
She decided to go to sleep.
She looked at me and said, "Thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know that I dnt want to be just frnz.
I love her but I am just too shy and I dont knw why.

A day passed, then a week, then a month...Before I cud blink....it was Graduation Day!
I watched her as her perfect body floated like an angel up on the stage to get her diploma.
I wanted her to be mine but she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it..
But before everyone left she came upto me in her smock and hat and cried as I hugged her.
Then she lifted her head from my shoulder and said...."You are my best friend, Thanks!", and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know that I dnt want to be just frnz.
I love her but I am just too shy and I dont knw why.

Now I sit in the pews of the church.
That girl.....is getting married now.
I watched her say, " I do", and drive off to her new life, married to another man.
I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't see me like that, and I knew it.
But before she drove away, she came to me and said, "You came!". She said, "thanks", and kissed me on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know,
I dnt want to be just frnz.
I love her but I am just too shy and I dont knw why.

Years passed.........and I looked down at the coffin of a girl who used to be my 'Best Friend'.
At the service, they read a diary entry she had written in her high school years...

.....And this is what it read:

"I STARE AT HIM WISHING HE WAS MINE,
BUT HE DOESN'T SEE ME LIKE THAT AND I KNOW IT.
I WANT TO TELL HIM, I WANT HIM TO KNOW,
THAT I DON'T WANNA BE JUST FRIENDS!
I LOVE HIM, BUT I AM JUST TOO SHY
AND I DON'T KNOW WHY..
I WISH SOMEDAY HE WOULD TELL ME THAT HE LOVES ME!"

"I wish I did too..........!", I thought to myself and I cried.
Do yourself a favour. Tell them you love them. They won't be there...................forever!
