“
We have different meanings for the same words.
When I said forever, I meant for eternity.
When you said forever, I should have known
that what you meant was until tomorrow morning.
Our definition of love is too inconsistent
for someone to be able to understand both sides.
You believe that love is giving it all up,
while I believe that love is sacrifice.
In your mouth, I am the synonym that can never be
replaced by prettier words; words that seem
to have more of a rich meaning when they are
rolling off of your lips.
In my mouth, you are a run-on sentence;
the words that I can never seem to pronounce.
In my mouth, you rest underneath my tongue;
just waiting for the right time to make a fool out of me.
