True

 If we truly understood the weight of the word true,

we wouldn't use it so easily.

To call something true should mean it withstands time,
survives eternity,
remains untouched by change,
unshaken by decay.

By that standard,
there is no true wealth,
no true friendship,
no true love.

Even truth itself might be nothing more than a well-dressed facade—
something we whisper to ourselves
when we need the world to feel solid.

Well, I'm sorry but I just think you're neither being honest with yourself nor your lover.  I agree that love descends upon us like a heavy sleep that closes our eyes, and weakens our limbs and hands. I know that love is capable of rendering us speechless but it also forces our tongues to life. You will want to speak without stopping, about how your special one does these things to you, for we are well aware of the transformation that our bodies undergo once we have been marked by love. We are overwhelmed with the urge to go on and on about the great and shameful things that love puts us through, and yet know that we can never truly find the right words to fit in that bottle that we hope to achieve by talking about love. It's almost like in our endless chatters and mutters, we are scanning around for the right words that will assure our lovers that they're abysma...
