So shut up and let me love you

So I say, "Fine. Let's me friends" but my mind was saying, "I love you so shut up and let met me wait for you."

I'm stubborn and proud
But more than the damage to my pride
My heart feels the stabs of a thousand knives
Your body language tells me what I already know
that you've accepted letting me go,
that you've quelled the passion
And maybe even the love...

I miss you and seeing you,
revived the hurt and pain
But ignoring you was more painful
So let me love you in my silent way
And even  if it hurts,
I guess as friends we'll stay.
