Secrets Within

The love I had to hide

I’d like to tell you how I feel
All these secrets stored inside,
To express my love for you
The love I’ve had to hide.

But you have up and left
Just like before,
You said you’d change
But you are gone once more.

All that’s left are memories
Of a happier you and me,
A photograph and a silver ring
Movie clips you took me to see.

But life moves forever onwards
No consideration that we part,
I will hold on to my love for you
Inside my broken heart.

As the days slip slowly past
I’ll keep my secrets deep within,
I’ll live with my memories
Of a love I could never win.
