INSPIRATIONS
Learning the Language
Aubrey Bahala


The scent of burnt cigar on my sleeves
Will always be remembered.
Late night conversations, with a glass
Of warm water beside us, it is perfect scenery
Of two individuals looking for something common.

The unusual glances and the pretty touches
Under the white ceiling was the language of
Two unidentified cadavers that was
Waiting for the sun to come out:
The start of yesterday.

When day ends, ours begins.
Usual rituals of ours were hidden
Under the covers: exploring what is forbidden,
Saying things over and over again. Hands clasped together,
Singing songs long forgotten. And we asked:
When will we decide to let each other go?

There was no romance.
There was no lust.
Yet we allowed our worlds to collide and
Eat each other whole and alive.

A feast of two bodies longing for companionship.
A discourse where words were useless.
Walking opposite directions, leaving behind
Memories of what happened yesterday.
