Dearest Friend

A poem about how Christine feels about Erik



You are the genius who taught me

You love me and yet I cannot love you that way

You've been my guidance and I am eternally grateful

But that is not what love is based on

So I cannot stay

But understand that I do love you

You have been my Angel

My maestro

My bodyguard

And my dearest friend

You are my Erik

Not my erik in an 'In love' way

But my Erik in an 'Love me love you as friends' way

I may not seem like the best person in the world with the largest heart

But I do understand

And I am sorry I hurt you
