  This is a good poem! i understand how the writter feels. I currently broke up with my bf whom i still really love. When we got togther after skool for a chat, i couldnt help myself and made my move. he rejected cos he said he didnt want to hurt me:(
• katie
  I love this poem because it expresses what I feel for my best friend also. He cares about me very much and I am falling in love with him.
• keem
  i'm not a poetry lover but i really liked your work. it wsa very brave of you to accept things and face what is reali salute you for that!
• Sarah
  That was amazing. Only thing is, I just can't do that with my best friend. I am completely in love with him, but he is scared, as he is younger than me and can't admit to his feelings. I really struggle to keep my hands off of him everytime I see him!
• Amanda
  awesome poem!
• Britt
  Moonshyne. I just wanted to thank you for writing such a moving poem. It has applied to my life more than one since the first time I read it. And I know it will as I continue on. This poem will forever be a part of me and I will never forget it. Thank you!
• Snow

• Krista
  This poem was awesome. It made me cry because it made me think of the relationship I am in right now. Not really there but things still always seem to happen.
• Kimmie
  This poem defines my life. thanks!
• sukie
  this poem was amazing moonshyne, it said everythin that i ever feel when i'm with my best friend. We both agree that there's something between us so mch more than "just good friends" but as much as we have love he is in love with his girl, everything gets so complicated at times and we also have to remember "hands off". you put into words a very painful situation, ur poem truly touched my heart, thank u.
• Amira
  I can really relate to this poem as I am in a similar situation. I'm married so is the guy so we are both married people who love each other but can't because of our marriage barrier and religion barrier.
• Sarah
  This poem is wonderful... i love my best friend but am too afraid to tell him... although we sometimes cross the line... it's just so scary to let it happen
• dominique
  i love this poem it reminds me of me and my ex-boyfriend and how we use to act to one another but happily we have gotten back together!
• Tracy
  I like this poem becuase it has happened to me,well it is happening right now. I am in love with my best friend, and we have shared a kiss, and then things got werid, well now we are friends again; however, again I am falling really hard for him, and this poem is just a reminder to me that I have to keep my hands off, so we can be friends.
• Bobbie
  great poem.
• stella
  this is one of the best i've ever read! very nice job!
• leslie
  oh my gosh~ this says everyting i have wanted too~me and my best friend are going through the same thing~ he is so great but there is a line we can't cross because we both have someone else~you have a great talent stick with it~
• Laurie
  Fits my situation perfectly!!!!! It is exactly how I feel about a married man I work with. I sent it to him.
• Nicky
  It seems that we are all cursed with the wanting of what we can never have. It shows great love when we deny ourselves that conquest for the sake of the lover. Bravo! I pray that I can be that strong!
• Alex
  I love your poem. I'm on the same boat. Nicely written.
• Baybe
  This poem describes my situation perfectly. You are a genius. I've been looking for a way to say everything that you just said. Thank You!
• Karen
  Moonshyne, you know exactly how I feel.thanks for putting words to the feelings that I have been having, and putting them down so eloquently.
• Kerry
  It was a perfect way to express that what the girl wanted to do was right for her and her forbidden love, but not for the rest of the world. It also shows the progression of closeness between friends, and that it is usually not for lust but for love.
• Sheila
  What a beautiful poem! I can certainly understand that torn feeling that comes from what is not meant to be.
• wendy
  I loved this poem. I can really relate to her, but on the other side, i have a man, but i know my friend is falling for me, and i just want him to know nicely that i just want to stay friends, and this poem came close enough.
• Gertjan
  This poem made my day. Thanks
• Amandhi
  I think this poem rocks!! :) I can relate to it as well as a friend and I both have feelingf ro each other but it would be fatal to start anything. I love this poem!!!
• Zeina
  I just love it
• Ness

• Lisa
  This poem says everything I should've said.
• Carrie
  Wow. When I read this I thought to myself, "Wow. Can this person read my mind?" I love my best friend with all my heart, and he loves me too, but he also loves his girlfriend. Whenever we're together we have to remind ourselves the same things. You have much talent. Keep writing!
• Fernando
  I loved this poem!
• Jaclyn
  I love this poem it is awesome and very well written.
• sandie
  i am married so i dont have this problem, but i remember when i wish someone would just say "hands off".this is such a great poem. you are a great writer "good luck" not that you need it.
• Floyd
  Girl, you sure did shyne like the moon on this one. It seems like all the relationships that i have been in have been like this, but the only problem is that I usually just jump right in without any though like that which is expressed in this poem. I usually end up breaking off the relationship that I may be in at the time and start a new because the passion with that friend was too overwhelming. Mind you that that was not alway the correct decision.
• kim
  this poem is the best thing i have ever read. it remindes me of my relationship with my best friend, how i dont want ot go to far with him
• Danica
  I don't know what ti was about this poem that made me like it so much. It doesn't even apply to me. It just seemed so realastic (in a way) :o)
• Tanj
  I love this poem.. it says everything I've been wanting to say...
