Inside

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

You can see it in my eyes,
Read it in my face;
Trapped inside are lies,
Of the past I cant replace.

With memories that linger-
Wont 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 cherrish what IVe got.

Dont take me for granted,
For soon it will be gone-
All you ever wanted,
Of the love you thought you'd won

The hurt Im feeling now,
Wont disappear over night,
But someway,Some how,
Everything will turn out alright,

No more wishing for the past.
It wasnt meant to be.
It didnt seem to last,
So i have to set him free.
