Minced words and mixed meanings

By Shashama

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Too many times, I have thought I loved Too many times, I was wrong. All those times, I thought it would be forever, Well, forever's not over yet, but is he here? Forever, what a funny word So dead, it has no meaning. When they say forever, they mean "Just a month" Interesting, I thought forever meant always... Unless "always" means, "Yeah, two weeks" I used to think "always" meant "for all time"... I realise that that means "Just today" Typical, english is full of mixed meanings But I never thought this drastic... I thought I wouldn't fall into this trap again... But I know that "not ever" means "Sometime later" I thought that I couldn't be hurt again But hey, that just means "could" Maybe I should... just.... stop... speaking.Er....
