When she says,

I'M FINE

She could be sad

She could be mad

Or

She could simply be okay

No subtle meanings involved

When he says,

FOREVER

He could be desiring parts of her

He could be trapping her

Or

He could simply be promising her

No subtle meanings involved

But how are these phrases communicated?

Through dry eyes?

Through thin-lipped smiles?

Through travelled distances?

Through deceiving technology?

Through everything that creates options

With too many subtle meanings?
