If truth told

I learned more then I have ever learned
I saw more than my eyes let me
I heard more than my ears can
and I talked more than I have a voice
I tasted things sour
like, that bad word
but I tasted things sweets
like when I said, love,
but I learned most from you
who I would never forget
how could I?
I learned that truth is harsh
that people lie
I learned that one person could mean everything
or mean nothing
I understood things
that everyone says aren't true
and I believed things, that you said were
we lie to each other
and if truth told, I learned more
than I every learned
by you.
