Between Us Is This Ocean Of Fear

you are there,
i feel you, unknown,

i am faraway from you,
the distance is a number.

you zero upon me
i, who, speak to the wall

between us are oceans of fears
we are whales

making the sound of a song
saying: we are not alone

our voices blend
upon a horrible silence

we wait when the silence
blooms

when it perfects itself
upon a tomb.
