Label Everything

Over the course of a minute, Nonetheless a single hour. We say a lot of things. Some we mean, some we don’t. Although sometimes meaningful, It’s the things we don’t that are most Pivotal. Not everything we think is meant to be Said aloud. The silence in-between hugs The silence between arguments. We hoop & we holler, but at some point This urge to label everything Must cease. We laugh, we cry However silent, these still impact Us the most. The intimacy of a moment we’ll Never get back. No matter how many times we Try to recreate it. Although sometimes meaningful, It’s the things we don’t that are most Pivotal. No matter how much we say What we want, It’ll never be like the first. At some point it becomes misleading. This urge to label everything must Cease
