the risks

friendship lays the best foundation for a relationship, we all know this. but for the select few of us who really value the friendships we hav this presents a bit of a complication in maintaining a platonic relationship. you say "he's my bestfriend" and he would say the same for you, but is he more?
who's the first person you look for in a crowded room? who's the first person you call ta get somethin crankin on the weekend? who do you run to when everything around you is falling a part? who is the person to catch you before you fall? do you trust him? does his opinion matter? does he matter?
lets be honest we all "date" our bestfriend to an extent. we hav all convinced ourselves that we're just friends but when that line is crossed and feelings get involved you hav to make a decision. I dnt believe in planning too far in advanced, its better to cross most bridges when they come. yall, you and him, aren't us- we've got more history, a better understanding. you and him are a cross roads and there are a lot of risks. you can play it safe stay "friends" and forever wonder what if. you can miss out on something real something worthwhile. or ya, you could lose a friend. and friendships are precious. this is the game we play, the balancing act of our lives. but in the middle of the night with your head in his chest, tell me what you're feeling...do you wanta run the risk.
