Distant Islands

Pram

I hesitate to say what i mean

As my mind is full of doubt

I hesitate to say what i mean

As my mind leaves something out

Words make remote objects of us

Distant islands in an ocean of sound

Words can make strangers of lovers

Disconnected by meaning's they've found

One word can turn your world upside down

Silences can act like a wall

Keep the space round me empty

But silence can sometimes say more

About what things mean to me
