A Love Forbidden Poem by RIC BASTASA

it is about a love
forbidden
when the two
of us
decided to break
the rules
written in stone
by our
ancestors

we dare
them all
one night
we do not
speak any
word
yet we understand
what we
both want
we both
need it
we wait
for the
mutual release
of feelings
inside us

we release
them like
doves
deep in the night

we are restless
then
we finally
find this
bliss and do
its dictates
like a hidden
code
pre-stitched
in our skins

there is
no word
to describe
it, there is no word that we can utter

we feel justice
is now inside us, there is no regret, there is no feeling
of being wasted

we are inside this dream
and we do no wish waking up again
