If words had been my medium of expression

To :

You said I could write
About what I find
Hard to express
Verbally

Yet certain things
Aren't really the essence
And the essence
I have yet been able
To express in words

But I sat facing the screen anyway
In hope that those words may flow
Yet they don't

Perhaps words don't matter
Neither does explanation
For the essential
What truly matters
Needs to be sensed
Not with the ears or the eyes

Wow, that's quite deep but I do know what you mean. There are certain sensations and emotions which you cannot express by words, whether written or spoken. Its like an old heartfelt song, a familiar scent or an old photograph. These are the things which truly reach deep within our inner selves - heart, spirit and soul.

Cool Insider: Yes. Some things are deep within to be able to be fully expressed by words.

Hopefully my friend, whom I am writing to, would realise that there are good things to treasure in my friendship with her, and focus on the essentials instead.
