excerpts,

                              Never seek to tell thy love,
                             Love that never told can be;
                             For the gentle wind does move
                                    Silently, invisibly.

                           I told my love, I told my love,
                                I told her all my heart;
                         Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears,
                                    Ah ! she did depart!

                             Soon as she was gone from me,
                                   A traveller came by,
                                   Silently, invisibly:
                                 He took her with a sigh.

                                               — Bill Blake

                     Nowadays most people die of a sort
                     of creeping common sense, &
                     discover when it is too late that
                     the only things one never regrets
                     are one's mistakes.

                                                  — Oscar Wilde
