a regrettable waste of energy

i feel like a broken record writing this again and again
communication that exclusively relies on written words can never be complete.
if we're missing out on hearing, sensing, seeing the other, we are ignoring essential elements of mutual understanding.
how do you mark a joke, sarcasm, irony, criticism, reproach if not with tones of your voice, mimic, gesture. how can i make you feel all the love in my heart when im locked out. when i won't be heard out.
failed communication is such a regrettable waste of energy when what you write goes misunderstood, misinterpreted, mistaken. even the knowledge that its you im writing to cannot prevent that.
do you know what i mean.
