Sometimes in our lives
we feel a great deal of pain
because we lose someone special.
These feelings we can't explain.

Sometimes in our lives
the lasting of the pain is far too long,
and though we try to fight it,
the feelings are just too strong.

Sometimes in our lives
things can't be controlled,
though we wish they could.
The secrets left untold.

Sometimes in our lives
we see things differently from what they are,
but if we actually saw the truth,
it might leave a nasty scar.

Sometimes in our lives
the truth is better left alone
because in all actuality
the truth is nothing but our foe.
