when language can be considered a forest?
And again I don't mean "forest" literally... thank you so much Star of Fla for inspiring this, that's a very interesting way to put things

O' yes,
language is a forest of words, syntax growing from the
landscapes of mind, ideas like leaves sailing about
through the wind of thoughts, watch out, do not step on
the idiom of mysteries ~ very delicate ~

Language is filtered through the users mind and that mind has preconceived notions of what those words mean. We are all mosaics of our pasts Words can evoke different things in different minds. Feelings, sights smells, emotions. Those filters and tiles bend and shape the way we interpret words. So no word means the same thing to two people.

No but I can see times when language is considered a highway.

Yes. But I consider that immaturity too. Saying what you don't mean, word play, mind games. Cloaking your emotions. I've never been adept at that.

Sure, people can hide behind flowery or confusing words.

Not something that I think about often, but you make a good point.
