We Both Fell

by Chelsea   Aug 15, 2005


You were drunk
and we both fell
you physically
me emotionally...
I helped you up,
when you were down
I was worried
when you told me you almost drowned
you looked at me with such kindness
you were so sweet
you understood my big mess
and swept me off my feet
night fell
and it was only me and you
you were too far gone and i could tell
and i didn't know what to do
i held you by the fire
and played with your hair
your head on my chest
still beating for air
you said you felt sick
and i told you its OK
you'll be fine
Ill make the pain go away
you slowly fell into darkness
both shivering, i held you dear
you whispered in my ear
"you're such a great friend"
my heart stopped and i came to tears...
i am the FRIEND...
and only the friend and it all came back
you loved her not me
and i just had your back
i wanted so bad
just to be loved by you
i want to feel what she had
i want to be more
more to you than a shoulder
i want to be the heart,
the heart that beats for you
the one that was here from the start
the one that would do anything for you
but i cant
because she is beautiful,
she is perfect
she is the one
and I'm just me...
who is stuck in her shadow,
where no one can see
but its OK
at that solitary moment you were mine
as i wiped the tears away
i told you i was fine...
you were drunk
and we both fell
you physically
me emotionally...
