My best friend

Why is it hard to say you are my best friend Could it be the commitment to be your one friend forever Could it be that I am scared of you not reciprocating this feeling Why should this be so hard!? You are the first person I want to speak to when something happens You are the first person I look for in a room You are the first presence I always crave Why should this be so hard!? Everyone around me says you are my best friend Anytime we talk our audience thinks we are best friends We share the same reactions to situations Why should this be so hard!? I know you are my best friend You know I am your best friend Why can't we say so Why should this be so hard!? In another universe May we be free to say we are best friends May we be brave to say we are best friends May we be confident to say we are best friends It shouldn’t be so hard!
