Things That Can Never Be

Take me back to that place I once knew.
Take me back to that place I once grew.
My heart is bleeding for the things that can never be.
I cry silent tears for the life that can never be.
Although my life continues, it seems I am frozen in a time when I was free to be me.
Free to feel, free to love, free to express everything that made me who I was.
I am a ghost, forever will I never finish what was so wonderful.
My untold story will be my greatest sorrow.
I am no longer that girl you once loved.
She died somewhere a long the road she walked so lonely without you.
Missing peice to my soul, but that I guess you will never know.
So on my pillow on cold nights I will weep.
For things that could never be.
