Silent answerphone
Silent answerphone
And silent phone.
Twice silent
In two days.
What’s happening ?
My love
Are your days too good
Too fast ?
Are the memories too tired ?
And your body,
Has your body forgotten ?
Silent phone.
But in the silence
My heart is screaming
A thousand thoughts.
The voice of night
Is overwhelming.
