Do You Feel The Same? Poem by Raymond Isaacs

So this is how you see me?
Nothing more than a friend.
So this is how we'll be?
Please make me understand.
I thought I made it clear
How I feel about you.
But I guess
You'll never feel the same.

I made you laugh
When your man wasn't there.
I listened attentively
When you had something to share.
I gave you joy
When I saw you were in pain.
But I guess
You'll never feel the same.

I tried to distance myself
To keep me from falling too hard.
I have pained myself
By trying to drive us apart.
So know I'm done putting up a show
Done trying to prove my love in vain.
Because I know
You will never feel the same...
