Days


Covered up inside

Are words I hadn't expressed, 

Feelings I covered,

And what lies couldn't be compressed

 

Written on my face,

Sadness in my eyes,

Cornered with lies hidden inside,

Of the past, that can't reinstate

 

Thoughts come and go throughout the day

But doesn't go away in my brain,

Leaving a question that wonders inside

But tomorrows a new day so why try to hide

 

Today is gone

Though the hurt still remains,

Lying in my bed knowing today will go away,

Reminding myself I must appreciate every day

 

My heart shouldn't be taken for granted,

Not knowing it could stop the next day,

What you always wanted,

Was me to appear to you in some way

 

My outlook has changed

And my heart for you will remain,

Because I have a feeling everything will be explained

 

It's time for me to go

Leaving to a different place that I don't know

Pray for me as I go with the flow

 

Time to spread my wings and fly

Cause I'm ready for the new adventures that will arise

I'm leaving now, promise you won't cry

Cause it's time for me to reach my prize

 

I'm off in the world on my own

Remember I love you

And you will never be alone
