Untold Truths

SECRETS, ARE REALLY TRUTHS
DELIBERATELY NEVER TOLD.
OFTEN DISAPPEARING
BUT NEVER DIE OF GROWING OLD.

LEGENDS ARE RESURRECTED
AND PASSED ALONG WITH TIME.
OFTEN REAPPEARING, IN VERSE
AND SOMETIMES RHYME.

LIES ARE REALLY COVER UPS
OF WHAT THE TRUTH'S ABOUT.
PURSUED BY "THE" TRUTH SEEKERS
THE REST ARE LEFT TO DOUBT.

THE TRUTH IS SOMETIMES PAINFUL
IT MAY EVEN COST SOME LIVES.
FOR THOSE, THE DISBELIEVERS
THEY JUST SIMPLY MUST DENY.

LIFE IS TRULY WONDERFUL
AT TIMES IT'S HARD TO SEE.
THE TRUTH IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND
UNTIL OUR MINDS ARE FREE.
