Love Cannot Lie

Love cannot lie

Although we try

We convince ourselves it cannot exist

We become chameleons

Averting its attention

Though we try to lock it down and put it in the grave

It cannot be held by mortal ties

It wrenches free from earthly bonds

Twists them open like a can of beans

Tenderises and crucifies us

It offers no logic rhyme or reason

And in this way like it or lump it

It offers us naught but truth

And therefore though we try and hide it

It performs for us high treason
