I wish there's also a meaning in the silence that lingers between us. Hanging like a held breath. I guess there are things too big for words. Things you cannot simply put into symbols. Things incapable of translation. Sometimes they take shape. In the form of spaces between two bodies. Toothbrushes no longer touching. Empty sofabeds on friday nights. I guess there are things too big for words.   In some kind of way, there is no use for it either. In some kind of way, i understand. As if silence, was our mother tongue. And we both spoke it a little too well
