I am here, you are there.
I wish there was more to what we share.
We are best friends. Yet, I find myself wanting you.
The smiles you give me and the hugs you steal...They rip me apart and my mind reels.
You don't feel the same and you never will.
We are best friends and will remain so still.
I wish you could see the way I feel about you.
Maybe you would change and see I am here too.
You have tried love before and I know it hurt you.
Now I want to show you the love I could give you
Here I am.
Waiting for you....To see that I care.

Firstly, try not to put colour to your posts. Its a bit... too much.

Secondly, is this not poetry? I would put this in the lyrical poetry section.
Suppose for a moment that the heart has two heads, that the heart has been chained and dunked in a glass booth filled with river water. The heart is monologuing about hesitation and fulfillment while behind the red brocade the heart is drowning. - R.S

This is more of a lyric poem than a romantic story.
However i like it, it's good.
Carry on writing!

I think it's an awesome poem, and should be in the poem section too. Anyway keep writing and have fun!
Life is like a blank book, nothing happens until you start writing your own story.

Hi! The first thing that stands out to me about this poem is the italics. You are using the italics for emphasize, but it really isn't necessary, and draws attention away from the poem.
Second, you are trying too hard to rhyme. i.e you tried to rhyme (in a row) you, too, you, you. In general, a word does not rhyme with itself. I think this poem would be fine without the 'forced' rhyme.

I like this poem. It tells the story well, and gives a lot of information. I think if you work on it a little more, mainly the rhyme, it will be great!

It is only a novel... or, in short, only some work in which the greatest powers of the mind are displayed, in which the most thorough knowledge of human nature, the happiest delineation of its varieties, the liveliest effusions of wit and humour, are conveyed to the world in the best-chosen language
