THERE IS SILENCE
|
Between cries of newborns and sirens
Between howling wind and wolves
Silence
Between tremors of earth and untruths
Between roaring waves and lions
Silence
Between clanging buoys and fire engines
Between crashing markets and broken glass
Silence
Between inhale and exhale
Between life and death
Silence
Between howling wind and wolves
Silence
Between tremors of earth and untruths
Between roaring waves and lions
Silence
Between clanging buoys and fire engines
Between crashing markets and broken glass
Silence
Between inhale and exhale
Between life and death
Silence
