A mentor's lies.
My trust killed by the truth.
How can I believe you again?

    Wow, I thought that was pretty deep for such a short poem.

    "My trust killed by the truth."
    That was a great line, very ironic in a way. I also thought it was weird, yet cool how you consider your Father as a mentor. Never really heard that one before. Good stuff.
