I have become close friends with a girl who I think wants more. I keep disappointing her because I am conflicted inside about liking her. Would this poem help her understand? This is how I feel about it. She flirts a lot, and I just do not know what to do!
Friends we are,
And friends we were.
Friends we shall stay,
I said to her.
But deep down inside,
I just could not hide,
The feelings I have,
The ones I denied.
For my head and my heart,
They stretch different ways.
And as they war on,
I feel different some days.
So what should I say?
And what should I do?
These feelings crop up,
I fight to get through.
A tap I ignore,
A hug that frustrates!
This adds a third element,
Almost as bait.
And before me a hook,
Dangles to and fro.
Should I bite it or not?
I just don't know!
So I ask you
What would you do,
If you were me,
And I was you?

I think alot of times poems and songs give us a way to express outselves to other people better than just outright saying what we feel. I think the poem would be a good way to tell her you are torn because sometimes you feel for her more than other times. Then maybe she wil realize that you are confused and either keep it as a friend or talk to you about your feelings.

DON'T give her this poem. Be a man and say "I'm confused and I don't know what I want." This poem asks her to place herself in your shoes and if she were you, you already know what she would do. She'd go for it because she's into you. There's not a choice for her like there is for you. All this is doing is making it look like you're looking to her to provide the answer when you already know what her answer will be, and it won't change anything if she gives it. You have to come to this conclusion on your own. Also, poems are romantic so writing any girl you're unsure of a poem is basically leading her on, even if it does express uncertianty.

Oh MY GOD....did you write this poem?if you did...you are damn good,the poem is lovely and it has almost every element a good poem should have,as for the girl...of course you love her as a friend...tell her you love her and if guys start dating anything could happen and u guys would break up,the whole friendship would be lost but if you keep on as friends the friendship will keep on growing stronger and if u guys r meant 2 date you will,dont get angry when she flirts,she probably does it to make jealous..just get used to not vexing when you see her flirting,give her space and if you guys r close as you say she'll always come back

Give it to her but be prepared!
You are about to confuse this girl even more. Now you're going to pull the I like you but I think we're friends but I also think I like you more than a friend. She will definitely ask you what this means...so my suggestion is for you to make up your mind and ask/tell her staright up what you feel and what you think.
She's a big girl, I'm sure she can take rejection. DOn't feel bad rejecting, feel bad if you're wasting her time. If you're not interested let her cry it out and pursue someone else. Thats the least you can do as a friend I think :)
Hope this helps and hope you will do the right thing.

Well put. Stop beating around the bush. Just tell her you want to be more than friends, but there must be some changes before it can happen and that's all only if she wants the relationship too. Maybe she is flirting to push you inot reality. You will never know until you make the first move. If not, tell her nothing ventured nothing gained and you want to remain friends. Even friends can tell friends that the flirting is too much.

Hey--that's a great poem and sharing it with the girl may be a good idea so she'll better understand where you're coming from. If it's a rejection, that is one polite way to reject someone. Well said!

The poem is great but as for it explaining to her how you feel... I'm still confused after reading it. So don't expect it to clear everything up!

The poem is good, but it's not going to answer any of her questions because in your poem your still conflicted.. Why is it your conflicted? Ask yourself that..

You obviously like her if you wrote her a poem. But if you just 'think' she wants more, then you should make sure before putting your heart out there... it would definitely change your friendship.
