It would hurt too much
If I told you in person
Here are my last words

Laugh, I will
At your smile
I wish I could stay a while

Cry, I will
Since I can't have you
Would you cry too?

Worry, I will
Of my friend you have broken
This would hurt her times ten

Miss, I will
The sound of your voice
This is my choice

I will
Love you,
Kiss you,
Be with you.

But you broke her
And I will not betray her.

The guy I like just recently broke up with my friend. He likes me, and I like him back. But I don't want to hurt her.
