"Hate"
Is such a dreadfully strong word.
To use it in such excess is absurd.
For a word carelessly applied
Is no longer a word at all,
As the places where it begins to lie,
Over used,
Causes the meaning to crumble and fall.
And so, I do not hate, and hope that I never will,
For I imagine a feeling so strong would probably make me ill.
"Love"
Is such a wonderfully powerful phrase.
So why do you use it if you are nothing but crazed?
For a word spoken in the miles,
Should never be said at all,
As in rarity brings romance and smiles,
Over used,
Causes the meaning to crumble and fall.
And so, I do love, and save that word for those who I mean,
For I imagine used in any other context would make me seem obscene.
"Forever"
Is such a passionately endless being.
You must realize it is eternity ahead you are seeing.
Not a second, nor a year of days long,
It never stops at all.
But when evermore is a moment where it does not belong,
Over used,
Causes the meaning to crumble and fall.
And so, I have not witnessed forever, nor do I expect anything else to see it pass.
For I imagine if that was so it would come and go much too fast.
So, take this kindly heed:
Use your terms correctly, or they won't be there when you need.

- Description: My frustration of liberally used words written into a sort of sing-songy rant poem. (I guess? O.o;) The rhyming is a tad lame, but oh well. I enjoy how this one came out, and it really expresses what I meant.
