There are no good-byes for my dog who has died, and we don’t now and never did lie to each other.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
Death brings the relationship into the past, yet the speaker refuses the language of farewell. The claim that neither ever lied gives the bond a lasting quality of honesty. Grief and trust sit together without an explanation that would tidy away the loss.
