I could lie
in the face of my love
in those moments of passion
i could lie of my commitments
I could lie & make him believe
its all for him..that he is the one
I could lie and make him believe
that I’m his dream come true
as he often said,
I could lie about us and life
I could lie about lots in my mind
or leave a few things in silence
after all, what he doesn’t know won’t hurt
but then I realized, its still about him
all those lies and silences
to keep him unhurt, to save him from
aches. My truth I alone dwelled in.
That’s when all the lies stopped
and my last one merely told him,
that I never loved him as much as I always
said, or perhaps not as much as he believed.
But is that a lie or is it the truth?
I rattled my mind and yet I knew not
I did love him but how much?
That’s when he hugged me with a smile
and asked me to just love
and I thought of all my lies where
I measured my love in words!

You got me to thinking there. You are right…
