Fail Try

His smiles

Send daggers of pain lancing

Through my skin 

And into my veins

A dulled pain

But pain nonetheless.

A guess

As to why my dearest friend

Can strike me with a glance

Of sparkling eyes.

No surprise

I've fallen in love again.

"Like a sister," he says;

"That's how much I love you."

What mistake do I make

Or is it a strength?

They never think of me as girl

But rather friend

And not together

In a way unprecedented.

He meant it

In the sweetest way

But don't you know

That sugar can kill?
