How would someone know?

How would I know if you wouldn't tell me? How would you know if you wouldn't listen? These are the questions that needs to be given attention and often are just taken for granted. True, sometimes you just don't realized that a wonderful relationship just ended without you knowing the reason. How would you know if nobody dares to ask? How would the other know if you wouldn't opened up? Life is not permanent. Sometimes it's short. We often take life for granted and the relationships that we have. I hope you wouldn't regret the times not spent wisely and the words that haven't said. It just take a part of your time. It just take a single step to approach someone. It just take a serious look and say the words you want to impart. It just an ego, a mans pride that's driving us to curl up and just leave the words unsaid. Perhaps, you wouldn't agree with me. But I guess its better to know the truth and be hurt than hurting yourself without even knowing the truth.
