The Truth
The vows we made that day.
Said together we would always stay.
Off to our honeymoon in the sky.
Oh, how fast did time then go by.
But, after a while you began to change.
Things you were saying seemed so strange.
Accusing me of things I did not do.
What in the world was wrong with you?
I looked closer and hated what I found.
It was you who was out running around.
I discovered one thing very clear and well.
The truth is easy to find but hard to tell.
