He was my best friend. There was always a connection there, noticed by all. I knew that eventually something would happen with us I just did n't know when. There were times, looking back, that I could see in his eyes that he entertained the thought of more. Prolonged exposure to each other made it worse so I can see where I went wrong getting him a job working side-by-side each other. It figures that we would start as co-workers and end as the same. A disastrous circle encapsulating what was once a true and pure friendship. 
 
 It took me a year to realize that no matter how much of my heart I poured into him he was simply incapable of loving me. Having been friends for so long I knew of his past, the dark and tormented soul who was now terrified of commitment. Was I stupid to think I was special enough to heal him? At the time I was confident in my abilities and our relationship to be able to reach my spirit into his and banish his darkness. However, now I think I was wrong. I was wrong to think I was special and unique to anybody, especially him. There is nothing more terrifying in this world than the knowledge that you can do nothing. 
 
 I ca n't make him love me, and while he does n't I will cease to love.
