As a famous professor of mine once said, "Words are not things."
Years By: Karen Hecht Springer March 1, 2016 All the years Those sweet, short words Coming in spurts Better than the smell of newly fallen rain Jerking my heartstrings To know you’re there Too near but not near enough One word can shatter dreams Silence being the biggest word of all Dominating with his brother doubt Making me lose faith Succumbing to the bitter enemy called what if Launching tactical operative anxiety When I told you everything When I used the power of long narrative When I gave in to All the years

This is my kind of poetry, Karen; it "seeps" into my soul and I feel what you express because I am intimate with it. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and best wishes to you,

As I read, your sparse words gradually told me of a sadness, a great sadness, that crept into your heart. You reached me across the years.

I know from experience being silent says far more sometimes than words that hurt.
At least you can perhaps start dealing with whatever the problem(s) are if you know where to start but silence is a killer.

Indeed, words are a powerful verb, be it careless vitriol, or generous gratitude has the potential making or devastation of ones life. The little tongue has a lot to answer for.

I know the feeling big time, Karen. Yep . . . "All the years."

All the years are time we have gone through, good or bad. Time consumes us.

Love ya!
