It seems to me that there are obvious potentials in each and every human being born. For any number of reasons those possibilities and potentials never bare fruit. What happens to them? I can't really get my head around the question - as unfulfilled, unrealised, in a certain sense they never "existed" in the first place.

Your question is either ill formulated OR starts from some unsaid assumptions.

It can be assumed but it´s not a necessary assumption.
To "live within us" also assumes they are autonomous and for some dualistic worldview are not as parts of us (and of our lived interactions) as our hands are. A possible view, not a "natural" standard.
Besides, you seem to equate "to exists IN us" with being concious or aware of them while most of what is behind of our feelings and emotions is frequently hidden to us.
AND there are emotions that do not vanish in a short time but are part of our baggage for a lifetime.

@ElRengo It is a quote of a man's writing, from the movie Night Train To Portugal. A moving movie about a man who is struggling with a purpose in Life for the short time he lived. Your analysis might be right about the movie, but to watch it will throw more light on the meaning of the sentence. It can be found here.it is a magnificent film...http://dafthippo.com/Night-train-to-Lisbon.php

When I was younger, I used to worry about potential and abilities that might be wasted. Now that I am older, I see that it doesn't matter so much.
