In Broad Daylight.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

it is the
dream that speaks
to you
about the forbidden

it is here
where i love two bodies
in you

two faces facing
my face
two faces that i kiss
without differentiating
each
to my surprise.

why do you have
two faces in my dream?
why do i have only
one arm?

when i wake up
from this dream
you are no longer
by my side

you did not sleep
that whole night
worrying about me
perhaps
how i got this
lonely arm
this one face

and you did not sleep
because you have two faces
then
which during broad daylight
i wonder
if i still love
