On The 26th Of July Poem by RIC BASTASA

i will have a room
at the Waterfront Hotel
Room 302
i will be alone
and will not
tell you
that i am there

it will be a big surprise
for you
unless you read this poem
today

there is a promise
in my words
each syllable has
desire
this poem shall be
a poem of passion
for us

this poem shall
not lie
this poem shall wait
for you
this poem shall
give you
so much pleasure

i have taken
already the element
of pain
and disgust

this poem shall see you
and you shall
not be disappointed again

yes, davao on a big day for just the two of us
