I don’t know why I long for you so bad
But I do
I’m a lesbian and you’re a guy
Yet I want you
You’re like my addiction
My personal brand of heroin

The further I get from you
The more I want you
The more I hate you
The more I want your lips on mine
The more I remember your touch
The more I want you to touch me again

I’m not a perfect person
And I never ment to hurt you
That day I was afraid to want you
But I do
Now our friendship is ruined
Can you please forgive me?

Nice work! It has a lot of emotion - which is what makes most poems so incredible.
