he said, she said

he said, she said (a failure to communicate)
by hardCore

she said, "you're deep"
referring to the sound of my voice
rather than the words they held

i said, "what a dress"
referring to how sexy it looked stretched out across my floor
opposed to spaghetti strapped over her shoulders

she whispered, "i love this"
referring to what she hoped "this" would become

i mumbled, "me too"
referring to what i thought "this" was

we both moaned, "yes!"

she, thinking of him
me, thinking of the previous her

the next morning, we both waved "goodbye"

she meant, for now
i meant, forever
