Truths Like Lies

When love is true,
all the yous remain false,
when the yous are true,
love becomes the lie.
What cruel arithmetic is this!
 
Life runs searching for you,
forgetting its own path,
the more wrong yous surround life,
the farther all truths stay!
 
Years pass, months slip away, weeks end, days arrive......hours chime,
minutes burn terribly, moments grow more unbearable still!
