Painting in silence

In silence I paint the memory of me

I painted in the silence
wrote the words
I thought you needed to hear
I wrote them down on white cheats
Like the ones you once laid on
beside me

In silence I paint my thoughts
You know the one's
you never get to hear
and somethimes I just feel
like all that matters
actually is nothing
nothing at all
but you

But just maybe
one day you will listen
to what I'm trying to tell you
and just maybe you then can read
the signs I used to paint
on your back with my fingernails

And somethimes I just wonder
what would have happend
if you would have understood me
years ago
