Al teléfono


"No te escucho bien, estás triste... ¿es eso, no?"
"Mhn..."

No, también está el hecho de que textraña y no te tiene a su lado, de que hace semanas duerme sola en su cama fría y pequeña, de que por más ocupada que esté, le sobran las horas para acordarse de vos, de tus manos, de tus besos, de las lágrimas que podrían estar rodando por tus hombros en lugar de caer directo en el vacío entre sus piernas cruzadas en el suelo.
El teléfono en la oreja le tiembla, la voz se le sacude, los suspiros ahogan la bocina así como se le quedan atoradas las palabras en la lengua.
Ya los vas a ver, ya te va a ver, ya se van a ver. Mientras, a esperar.

Y colgó el teléfono con una promesa colgándole de la comisura de los labios que a poco se le iban marchitando. Imposible pedirle una sonrisa.

To tell

Talk to me. Tell me the things. I don't care what the things are, what do you want to tell me, just tell me. I want you to talk to me, to tell me about your most hated dreams, about your beloved nightmares. I won't mind if you're tired of me and want some time apart, I'll understand. Maybe I'll break a plate or two, swish a tear, and even won't smile much after that, but I'll be okay, and I'll be knowing what you wanted, so it'll be okay. If you want to come running back to me, just come, and please yell it aloud on your way to my open arms. If it happens that you love me and you want to tell me about it, do it, tell me. Look into my eyes, gently hold my face into your warm hands and whisper close to my little lips that you love me, 'cause if you don't, I will, because I love you and there's nothing I can do against it. And if you want to tell me that you don't love me anymore, for the sake of what you love the most, then, tel...

Blur

  So I was walking that night, talking to myself. The air was thick around me I could almost touch it, the street was slippery wet, and there was nothing behind nor ahead of me and my whispering voice.   And suddenly, in the blink of an eye, mine stopped seeing clearly. I could not see the cracks underneath my feet and the lights floating above my head turned into big fluffy shiny clouds with no end. In fact, every thing I'd laid my eyes on had no end, no edge. The things in front of me just merged one into another, and I wasn't even capable of tell colors apart, because of the darkness falling all over me, because of the dim of the streetlights.   But I just kept walking. And talking to myself. And even thinking out loud that maybe it wasn't me the one with the problem, that there was nothing wrong with my eyes.   Maybe, and just maybe, it was the world around me that turned blurred, that lost all its boundaries, its edges. Maybe it was the universe itself...

Wrong

  She sleeps like nothing's wrong in the world. As if nothing's wrong with her, as if nothing's wrong with me.   Her head on my chest, against  my beating heart, her arms around me, her fingers intertwined with mine; her eyes softly closed, her lips slightly open, a little blooming smile on her cheeks. The bed is all warm and there's darkness floating all around us.   She sleeps like nothing's wrong, but there are people walking homeless, hopeless, endlessly right there on the street outside our door. There is war surrounding us. There are children dying of thirst. There is me with her. And I don't love her anymore.
