I never knew
If she is alone
If God has abandoned her
I would like to talk to her,
And God doesn’t show
God doesn’t know
God I never saw,
And I wait for a question
Any question
To break cursed silence
One question
But an eternity of answers
One question is all we need.
A question between us
Enough to pick all the flowers in heaven
I don’t need the flowers
I need to see her mouth
Unlock like a rose,
Damned virgin,
Hit by the first rays
And she would mutter a question
She would ask me what I would do
Earth and wind gone
Hope on the line
Would I choose her or life?
And I would whisper softly
“You my dear, forever you”
She doesn’t speak
Silence is an awkward shape
Hanging around the walls
Haze covering every soul
Playful and youthful
It scares me
It takes her away
In a place I cannot reach
Company of silence
I look for her gaze
While trying to find her eyes
Only then can I say
What I have wanted to say
Love is like tears,
Starts at your eyes
Wets your mouth
And burns your heart
I have started to speak
A foul wind
Stole my words
Glasses sitting on the table
They can hear,
Curtains on the window
Tremble with what I said
They all hear
They all stand witness.
Yet you hear nothing.
My beautiful whore
Do not go
A lone woman
Between heaven and hell
Hell is the choice
Hell is people
Hell is silence
Hell is her
