Left Forever Unsaid

If all that we say in a single day, with never a word left out.Were printed each night in clear black and white would prove strange reading, no doubt.

And then, just suppose, ‘ere our eyes we could close, We must read the whole record through; then wouldn’t we sigh, and wouldn’t we try a great deal less talking to do?

And I more than half think that many a kink would be smoother in life’s tangled thread. If half that we say in a single day were left forever unsaid.
