secrets like cancer
metastasizing
insidious and incurable
sins of omission
bald-faced lies
misdirection and misanthropy
all the things we never say
untrue with what we do
the chipping away of precious moments
in a maelstrom of mendacity
leaving in it's wake a flood of tears
destruction and desecration
memories rendered inadequate
in light of overwhelming evidence
that perception was skewed
from the start
broken hearted
spirit broken
for no reason
but a saving of face
a postponement of the inevitable
the inexorable
the inescapable
the truth
