LOVE TRIANGLE
I don't know what she feels about me,
I am puzzled.
Her attitude can't be predicted.
Today, she smiles at me and talks with me;
Tomorrow, she goes silent and looks not at my direction.
I love her,
The reason I am close to her best friend.
I want to see if she'd be jealous or not,
Or if she won't be herself.
My heart is divided, no step to take.
I am not tired of her,
I want her, not her best friend.
Her best friend is now the girl trying to win my heart;
Haven't I put myself in a real mess?
I can't find an answer to this difficult situation.
Should I tell her that I love her best friend?
But how would she feel?
Won't I cause an everlasting enmity between them?
What would I be called?
What picture would be painted about me?
Do I just walk up to the girl that I love,
And tell her that I love her?
Am I not a man?
What is there to be afraid of?
But what if her response is negative?
