梅溪湖公寓的日常（八） 短篇 【AU】(5)

When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare disturb the sound of silence
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows"
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words like silent as raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning
And the words that it was forming
And the sign said:
"The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls
and tenement halls
And whispered in the sound of silence."
音乐激荡至此，戛然而止。
整个世界寂静无声，直到虚无之中，又传来了天籁
“Hello Darkness My Old Friend”
东方的天空显现了一点白色，闪耀的朝阳又要升起了。
The End
