Broken English

There were mountains to begin with
Silence shaped in giant
My voice would reach the highest
But you cannot tell this in English

An old man's precise and attentive
My mother's tongue my heart only sounds
As a girl I got lost in a cloud
But you cannot tell this in English

I balance an egg and a spoon
I'm never on time
It's too late or too soon
In the night there is always the moon
That doesn't speak in English
