Love is the silence shared between us,

Everything else is a lie

 

Love is every moment of oblivion

Everything else is a lie

 

It is that which never made sense

For it needs not to be made sense of

Everything else is a lie

 

It is the raw rage of regret rolling down the cheeks of a restless romantic

 It is the road less travelled; it has no maps, its frantic

Everything else is a lie

 

It is indecisive, without direction,

it has no tunes yet full of music, it plays our song but in silence

every other beat is a lie

 

it is everything we did not discuss

it is everything we did not agree or disagree on

it is everything we did not hesitate upon

it is everything we were not held on

 

its free, it chose us, captured us, then relinquished us

its wild, it surged us, stamped us, we held on, it held us, then tore us

 

it doesn’t listen to you nor me, it only recognizes honesty

and we weren’t honest to it,  so it left us…

it called us to a lie

now go and argue with it all you like and try to name and blame it,

it won't be tamed, it compels sincerity, holds vanity to shame,

it doesn't fold to a lie

It leaves you regretful, sometimes repentant,

its not about pointing fingers, its not about prosecution - nor should you be a defendant..

but it does hold you truthful to account, and forces you to face your arrogance 

it call a spade; a spade, call a lie; a lie 

still yet, love loves you regardless, 

because it has no shape, no form, no limitations, because love knows no amount, 

it is the only truth, far from this tangible actuality 

its magnitude is felt, but cannot be touched like every abstraction of reality

everything else is assembled, made up, fabricated, constructed...................  everything else is a lie
