Can you change the history of literature?

" There aren't the words to express."  Have you ever been in that situation, for sure I have many times throughout my life.  We need a literary genius to come up with the missing words.  Words to express the deeper things in life.  Anyone have any serious ideas?

    How can you find the words if you don't know to what they relate?

    I'm afraid I don't -- though I know what you mean. The best I can do is with the images in my head, anecdotes, parallels. 

    Sometimes, however, you feel yourself lacking the words, yet the person you're talking to still understands, intimately. It's special. I'd argue that more than makes up for it.
