Unskyld! :-(

Chirps 

Running busy, you called
hoping to let me know why
tonight is an exception
I cannot see you.

So while you drive the talk
I stared blank into the night
Two cats passed carrying
cries in their mouth,

And perhaps it's the instinct
of death that led me
to understand the
chirping for life.

I leaped in an instant,
rattled, struggled, and saved
those frantic screeches --
Then you lost me

from the other line:

You called back, flooded
your messages of cries too --
Like these birds I heard
your terrified love.
