To my best friend who fell in love with me

We were perfect as friends. You knew me better than anyone, we could talk for hours, we fit together in every way except the one that mattered to you. And I hate that I can't force my heart to feel what you need it to feel. [ What I'm Grateful For ] Thank you for having the courage to be honest, even though it cost us everything. Thank you for all the years of friendship, for being my safe place, my person. Those memories are real, even if we can't go back to them. [ The Goodbye & The Wish ] I'm sorry I can't love you the way you love me. I'm sorry that my "no" means losing you completely, because you can't be just friends anymore. I hope you find someone who loves you back with the same intensity. You deserve that. I just wish I could have been that person.
