TO DELAWARE

You were my best friend
For what seems like a really long time
Something like six or seven years
You gave me the strength to grow
Be myself
Feel ok with just who I was
You pointed out ALL my flaws
But you still cared about me
I didn't scare you
You never took "nothing or no" for an answer
I could never lie to you
You friendship meant everything to me
And I do mean everything
I made some mistakes...so did you
But I thought that it was ok
Then...what I never wanted to happen...did
I fell in love with you
I fell in love with my best friend
But I didn't tell you
That was the first thing I had ever hidden from you
So instead I freaked out and found a substitute
And married him...
He never cared about me the way you did
But I still had our friendship
And that was all that mattered
(or at least I thought we were still friends)
But then my marriage fell apart
My life fell apart
And I cried to you on the phone for hours
MISSTAKE ONE
Then I told you how I had felt about you
That I had loved you for so many years
MISSTAKE TWO
Then you told me you didn't want anything to do with me
PART OF ME DIED
Then I still tried to be friends
MISSTAKE THREE
And I lost you all together
I miss you
And I want you back...as a friend
Because you as a friend
  is better then not having you at all
