"The mark of a really great writer is that he or she gives expression to what the masses of mankind think or feel without knowing it. The mediocre writer simply writes what everyone would have said."
-G.C. Lichtenberg


Validations
By Greg Stahl and Kevin Wiser

You think you see it in her eyes
But you know it will never last
You watch it spark and fade away
Like thunderheads
In an uncertain summer sky

And you tell youself
And you tell yourself
And you tell yourself
There's no such thing

Her finger slips along your arm
Touching feelings passed
You feel it drift and melt away
Like snow
In an early thaw

And you tell yourself
And you tell yourself
And you tell yourself
There's no such thing

You think you hear it in her voice
But you know inflections change
You hear it once and then it wanes
Like a fade
In a sad, soft song

And you tell yourself
And you tell yourself
And you tell yourself
There's no such thing

You may have found it in her heart
But realization dawns
In the end you're all you'll have
Like an orphan
On a solo singer's stage

And you tell yourself
And you tell yourself
And you tell yourself
There's no such thing

You think you see it in her eyes
But you know it will never last
You watch it grow and then decay
Like autumn leaves
On a gold-to-dust day

And you tell yourself
And you tell yourself
And  you tell yourself
There's no such thing
