tossing and turning all her thoughts are burning she can't go to sleep

thinks she is dreaming although she is scheming a secret to keep

years have flown by taking with them time she never had for her own

now she plays house while her husband stays out on the town



suppressed emotions



thoughts turning backwards she sees a young man with a gleam in his eye

both of them laughing and jumping as if they could reach to the sky

with love abounding her heartbeat is pounding a message

regrets is all that she gets if she opens her eyes



suppressed emotions

trying to hide feelings she keeps inside

suppressed emotions

eyes may reveal feelings she tries to conceal



no need to awaken her dreams have all taken her where she longs to be

without a care but the wave of her hair no responsibility

would she have done anything differently if she knew what she knows now

lost in delusions of a love that she never found



suppressed emotions
