Words

There is a silence that cannot speak.
There is a silence that will not speak.
Beneath the grass the speaking dreams and beneath the dreams is a sensate sea.
The speech that frees comes forth from that amniotic deep.
To attend its voice, I can hear it say, is to embrace its absence.
But I fail the task.
The word is stone.
 
A word to the wise ain't necessary, it's the stupid ones who need the advice.
 
Language has created the word "loneliness" to express the pain of being alone. And it has created the word "solitude" to express the glory of being alone.
 
"A failing love is like desperately hanging on to something precious;
not wanting to give up, but your hands feel the pain.
And, when you finally let go, you're free from any pain,
but your hands are empty."

~ Anonymous ~​
 
“Time is free, but it's priceless.
You can't own it, but you can use it.
You can't keep it but you can spend it.
Once you've lost it
you can never get it back.”

~ Harvey MacKay ~
 
The face of a lover is an unknown,
precisely because it is invested with so much of oneself.

~ James Baldwin ~​
 
A man thinks that by mouthing hard words he understands hard things.
Herman Melville​
 
"Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless."
 
Words are things, and a small drop if ink, Falling like dew upon a thought, produces That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.
 
There is nothing that makes a person feel quite so lonely,
as to be in the company of others laughing and enjoying each others' company;
and yet to feel completely left out of their joy.”

"My words fly up, my thoughts remain below: Words without thoughts never to heaven go." - WS
 
'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.


~ Alfred Lord Tennyson ~​
 
"True love never dies as we see in our eyes, only when we let go that we can truly say goodbye."​
