Words, it seems,
are getting old and tired
over time,
they have started
losing their meanings,
love doesn’t just mean love,
behind an emotion is
not just that emotion,
a lot happens around them
that are left behind somewhere,
ways of expressing them
have therefore to be changed…
Not that new words
are not being created now,
a few new words are added
every year to dictionary,
that may not work for some,
but these words
are not to be blamed,
the fault lies in our way,
how we deliver those words,
our behaviour and body language
give rise to different connotations
of the same word…
Words are not meant
to hide our faults,
but to express ourselves
meaningfully
by incorporating new words,
not by substituting one word
for another…
