i know, i know
i’m a horrible friend
she doesn’t know but she knows —
when we hang out,
neither of us acknowledge the elephant in the room
it’s not acceptable, what i’m doing
i can’t imagine how i would feel in her place
yet whatever we have feels too good to stop,
the pull of your lips
outweighing my sense of morality
funny how a few weeks can change everything:
strangers become lovers
best friends become strangers
i wonder what lovers become
