The written word is a powerful thing

What emotion it posesses and controls

Without seeing your face or hearing your voice

I can feel

There are more to your words than face value

I don't know how to accept what I'm grasping

No accusations will fly for fear of misunderstanding

But I still believe my intuition

There is something your words aren't saying

Would you tell me if I asked

What feelings would stem from your answer

All I could foresee is confusion

Self-loathe

Maybe I should remain silent

Friendship is more than valuable

I need it to breathe and go-on

Each smile that I get

Each time that I've laughed

It has built me

....and you make me laugh

Your words are well said... your writing speaks for this, itself. As for the question of whether it's better to be silent than to risk harming a friendship, I am of the belief that friendship, except for the most tenuous kind, is not a fragile thing. I think you should ask the questions, and let the weight off your heart.
