masking truth



to love and to be loved by you
i kept concealing facts
masking truth
and invented an apparent reality

i said to my soul when rooted
in love and assured of your growth
and when that moment has arrived
i shall plainly speak

but when the moment was here to speak
accuracy, i spoke another lie to cushion
your heart while carrying in my heart
the pain caused by speech not so plain
