Inside

I got this out of a book! It's one of my favs.

Bottled up inside
Are the words I never said
The feeling that I hide the
lines you never read.

Oh you can see it in my eyes
Read it on my face
Trapped inside are lies
of the past I can't replace

With memories that linger-
Won't seem to go away
Why can't I be happier?
Today's a brand new day.

Yesterdays are over
even though the hurtings not
nothing lasts forever
I must cherish what I got.

Don't take my love for granted
For soon it will be gone-
All you ever wanted
Of the love you thought you'd won.

The hurt I'm feeling now
Won't disappear over night
but someway, somehow
Everything will be alright.

No more wishing for the past,
It wasn't meant to be
It didn't seem to last
so I have to set him free.
