fish

my lips moved several times
during that night
trying to form the shape
of the words I needed
but the sound
didn't arrive
so I was just standing there
more like a fish
mute
suffocating
with the oxygen
and with the cold hands

you held these hands
later on
trying to warm them up
and pretending
not to see
that something broke in me
and now
my Inside
is slowly leaking out
onto the pillow

my lips moved
for the last time
- a sound appeared
a short and a very quiet
howl of the animal
that hurts
