Never Knowing

He looks at her,
But doesn't see.
Can't see,
See the pain he causes her.
The connection they have
Never going beyond friends.
All because she doesn't want to hurt,
Doesn't want to be left behind.
The wall being put up
Only making matters worst.
As she sits beside him
Watching the affection he shares with other.
Longing to be the one of choice,
The one that feels the love.
Although friends is all they can be
All that is comfortable.
For fear keeps the feelings down
All the hurt locked away
As he moves on to another.
So she remains the friend,
The keeper of secrets.
All to prevent humiliation and abandonment
All from the one she loves.

"Watching the [effection] affection he shares with other." ... I believe you meant to write "affection" here, Paige. As in to show someone love...
It's been said that being friends with someone you secretly love and admire is better than having no relationship with them at all.
This disputes that theory, hands down, however. Unrequited love can be and often is very painful.
Perhaps one day he'll get the hint and come around.
Hang in there...
