Until the Very End


My mistake...
I thought that
when you said
that you loved me,
it meant that you loved me,
but it was just words
that worked for you,
over and over again,
and so you used them
and you abused them
right onto the very end.

Not current events.
Just a statement
about the improper
use of the word
LOVE...

You are right, dear James, we can overuse this meaningful, most precious word, but some never use it and that's even worse.

love

James...I agree. Love is one of the most abused words in our vocabulary...Paul

I agree, as a word it's far too easily used. Nicely put...

Sad but true JM, I guess we wil have to make amends for the abusers and double up on our application of this simple, yet powerful little word.....
