Everything But the Truth [Poem]

So in the end I simply can't keep a secret
Everyone knows everything but the truth
I know I've experienced something I'll never forget
My acting, my feelings, never could form a sleuth

Everyone knows everything but the truth
About who I love, what I've become
Never did I dream of something like this, in all of my youth
I calculated carefully, but never considered the obvious outcome

I would never want to do anything to hurt you
I just solely want to be with you, it's my heart's desire
Everyone else now knows everything but the truth
There's this feeling constantly burning inside me, this bright fire

It makes me want to run out my door
Which I've always hid behind
And pull you into my arms, this feeling's spurred deep into my core
You're that something I always wanted to happen, that something I needed to find

All my life I've only wanted a change
To everyone else, this may seem strange
But this is all I've wanted before, I want my life rearranged
This beaten path, for a new one, I've only dreamed of giving an exchange

Because everyone knows everything but the truth
Only you know it too, you know I could never lie
I've never known exactly what I wanted, but now I know that it might be you
I never want to forget you, for you'll always be part of my life

Everyone knows everything but the one truth
My feelings are always bursting inside of me
No one will never really see, the truth that resides inside of me
I firmly know that you know, and that's simply enough

Because if everyone else knew the truth, it may not be like it is now
I like what I became, I know I'll still change, even we won't remain the same
But when we knew, everything looked different, everything looked new
Everything changed, my whole world, a different view

It was a change I'd been begging for, all this time
But even so, this mile stone, by other people, won't be known
You might one day move on, like everybody else does
But I won't be sad, I won't frown, 'cause I'll remember how it was

Everyone knows everything but the truth, of which has been sewn
You've forever changed me, I know what life can be
I now know happiness exists, I can even find it within me
I'll never again be truly alone, for this truth, I now know

End
