another night



one more of
those nights
those homes
inside
times of hiding
in words
safe shields
with every hour
losing protection
they get thinner
less and less
the source dries
like a mouth
waking up at night
to fears
echoes in loneliness
vulnerable
cold
calming down
not suffocating
sleep spreads
with sunrise
leaving
someone broken
splitting
headaches
restlessness
a soul
mislead
tormented
sticking to words for
just another night
