I Just Don't Understand.

Dishonesty and speed bumps
hiccups to truth
why do people lie?
so Much easier
the truth is to me
How do you feel
what is real?
Why is it my heart
you all want to steal?!
Playing these games
while you make up the rules
tell me I'm right all the time
in the end I still lose.
A simple answer is
more precious than gold
so rare in occurance
wanted, desired, desperately sought.
I'll beg and I'll plead
and get down on my knees
still they keep
side stepping the story I want.
Why do people confuse
mislead, and distort?
I'm a slave to my trust
though I have
none of my own.
Until I start reaping the untruth
they have sown.
