Lie

Trying to find the right thing to say
Sometimes with words one will play
 to see past the night
Into  all the tomorrow's yet to show
Looking for the knowledge on which to grow
Passage of time brings wisdom to the mind
Yesterday is never forgotten but still must be left behind
The silent echos of your tears
Follows you along for many years
Becomes your fears
The past becomes your tomorrow
Such sorrow
The sun still rises on a new day
All the words still left to say
Time begans to unfold
The truth is lost ,never to be told
Words began to die
If told as a lie
With the word broken
Distrust is awoken
