Best Friends

I dreamt of you last night. Your face has almost fleeted from my mind completely, yet the memory of your touch is still imprinted on my skin. We laughed as you wrapped your arms around my shoulders and embraced me into your warmth. It was almost like 8 years hadn't passed, like you were still a call away. Our words bounced off the walls and collided with each smile, each glance. But 8 years have passed, and all I'm left with are the words I never got to say - words I didn't know existed then. And if, for only a moment, we were to meet today, I still wouldn't say those words. How could I? My best friend, the girl that knew me most, how could I tell her that I was in love with her, but that I just didn't know it then?
