like water

“There are moments in life, when the heart is so full of emotion That if by chance it be shaken, or into its depths like a pebble Drops some careless word, it overflows, and its secret, Spilt on the ground like water, can never be gathered together”

~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ~









"If grief could burn out
Like a sunken coal,
The heart would rest quiet...."

~ Philip Larkin ~
