It's All Been Said |

I’ve heard that everything worth saying, Has long ago been said. But why do longings, yet un-uttered, Clutter up my head? Why do dreams with no fulfillment- Tantalize my heart? And dreams of things un-comprehended- Still cause the tears to start? Perhaps these questions have no answers- I contemplate with dread… That every, single thing worth saying- Has long ago been said. |

thing to remember, it hasn't been said by you, in your own inimitable style. It's not so much what is said as how it is said. I love you - is not necessarily, I love you. Or thereabouts. j. |

It's when we feel there should be more to say, but feel powerless to make the attempt that we really have to worry. Never put that pen down. |
