In this sonnet, Shakespeare discusses how love is not always ideal and pure as poetry makes it seem like. He describes his relationship with his lover, and he tells us that he is not always honest with her. Moreover, he knows she is not always honest with him. However, he states that these small lies and deception do not necessarily follow a bad intention, and that their goal is to make the other one feel better. Therefore, when they lie together, their physical love is more powerful than anything else and they continue to love each other, despite their failures.
