Unsaid

Don’t hate me for the things I don’t say
Because if you really want me to
I will tell you one day
You might not want to know
The real feeling that are in my heart
It might be where we have to
Make a brand new start
Or maybe even break apart
Some things I have never said
They just swim around and around
In my head
Looking for a place to be
Should they escape into the world
Or be lost forever into eternity
Sometimes things are better left unsaid
Never to be spoken
Never even to be read
Just leave them locked up
Safe as can be
Kept inside the prison that is called me
