Words

"You say it best
When you say nothing at all"

Someone dedicated this song to me long back. Words were not as important then. SMS was Rs 4 per message, and internet access Rs 30 per hour. Silence was the most beautiful way of expressing yourself. And apparently, I used it effectively.

"Its only words, and words are all I have
To take your heart away"

SMS became free and internet access cheap. But silence became difficult and expensive to express.

I was communicating silence and they, 1700 miles away, thought it was a network problem.
