Someday, But Not Today by Terrie*

I have a friend
whose friendship I had to place on hold
something i felt i had to do
because of the love I have for one man

whom I felt I wasn't being fair to

you see all of my waking days
I spent them with my friend

while the man that I love
still remains working far far away

my friend whom moved to another country
made his way back to me
as I hope and pray
that the man that claims his love for me
would be here with me someday

I hear from my friend upon every waking hour
I hear from him when I head off to work
when I get ready for bed

he knows my lonely heart
and how difficult it is to be apert
fom the one you love

as for the man that I love
I am beginning to understand
how difficult it is for him
to break away for a small moment from his day

the decision to place my friend on hold
was a difficult one
as you see he too has love for me

but love only as a friend should be
kinda like a brother
looking out for me
someone I feel comfortable with
talking about the things I messed up on

and he still continues to stand by me

he understands where my heart is
and the love that I have for one man
he really knows me
and he knows my heart

sometimes he caint understand
how I can love a man
someone I've never meet
but he knows I have my heart set
and my faith is what carries me
into a life that God has provided for me

and as a good friend would do
he will be far enough
to give me the needed space to help me understand
but yet close enough if love should fail me

some day we will share
that friendship that was ment to be
because he will always mean something to me
