It Never Happened


I bottle things up

Hold everything in

I don't know why

Then, I hit the breaking point

 

I suddenly feel everything

All emotions at once

No one around to see

Is it the best way to be

 

Every once in a while

I will let that one special person see

Only for them to tell me

What I am, how to be

 

Love is the center of everything

But they will never know

They will never see

How I can be

 

Hopefully I can let everything go

As of right now just let me be

I cry,

I sob,

I hurt,

But the next day

It's like it never happened
