Always or Forever?

It may sound romantic but a person can't love someone "forever". However, if they put some effort into it, it may be possible to "always" love someone.
We interchange the words "always" and "forever". But "always" means constant and unchanging. While "Forever" refer to infinity or time without end.
I must confess
"Always" and "forever"
is a bit confusing
In the present
"Always" is constant
but transform to a "forever"
when intended for the future
Yet hand in hand
they go well together
when you say,
"My love for you is always and forever"

It doesn’t matter they are just words. Why try to define one has more value over the other. You can say the same with unconditional love. Personally it’s whatever a person wants to say the mean they same to me.

Using the correct words matters. We like to think our words mean exactly what we say but sometimes our explicit message does not fully concur with our intention. However, this post is not about lexicology. The inquiry into the words "always" and "forever" provided a nice segue into my poem.

@josie_ actually writers will tell the way we use our words is actually what they mean. Word are words it’s in the context you places is how they are heard.
Something like poetry or a song is based on your one individual interpretation of the words. I strongly suggested watching a show called Adman ruins everything they do one on words and grammar

That sounds romantic but it's only in the state of the mind.
