All Bottled Up Poem by norman hale

All bottle up inside
Is this love I have for you
Deep down inside it's there
Oh, I swear, that it's true

From the moment that we met
I felt it right there and then
And I had this feeling
This could be, a lot more than friends

As we grew to know each other
We could see it was too true
For you had feelings for me
As strong as I did for you

As each day passes
Our love just gets stronger
And we both know
It's going to last a lot longer

As it stays bottled up inside
I builds up pressure towards the top
If we don't release at least some
Then the cork is bound to pop

So come right over here
And tell me you love me so
And that you'll love me forever
And you'll never let me go
