Sayings


BY JOE M. DEPATIE


They say sticks and stones can break your bones but words can never hurt.

How naïve must one be

To believe

 That the most common form of expression cannot hurt

 

They say “home sweet home”

How sweet is it really, when most times it’s the last place some want to be?

Whether it be family, chores or you feel the daily races finally keeping up

The home becomes a source of commitment where you feel you must be

Until you fall asleep

 

They say a picture is worth a thousand words

Is it really

Or is it worth only the amount of words that you need to tell the story

Or until someone says “ok you bore me”

 

They say there’s nothing like a mothers love

Why it is that some must hear their mothers love through a phone

Rather than see their mothers love

When they come home.

 

Sayings

All it is, is “say” and “things” put together

People say things to comfort you

To hide the truth

To live in a false forever.
