Ages Past

There was a time before now
that man relied on trust.
I cant show you a snapshot,
believe me life was just.
Maybe then I knew you
your thoughts and goals your aim.
But that's when life was different
we called a man by name.
I look upon with sadness
lost days not understood.
We will never get the trust back
but we sure wish we could.
Don't think that I am bitter
that yesterday is lost.
Innocence wont last forever
and losing it does cost.
So if by chance you hear me
think back about our start
and when you touch another    please do it from the heart.
