The Hidden Self And The Strong Facade... Poem by Sebastian Soberania

The Hidden Self And The Strong Facade...



i perfectly know what i want
what i love much
and i always think about it
all the nights and days of my life
i cannot tell you because you are my friend
and so i keep it all inside my
heart and mind
sometimes when i am alone in my room
i touch this body and feel this soul
i close my eyes to feel whole of it
my tongue sings with joy
my hands dance the arabesque in my fingers
i do not jump
i am afraid i can be heard
and you may ask about the noise of my joy
and so i am as silent as the carpet on my floor
i am a very patient man
when we meet i pretend i do not have any desire
that i have long forgotten love
and lust
but if you only know
i am holding hands with these two
close friends in my mind

do not think about me
i am an expert about numbness
i have mastered pretense
and i can manage
i'll win i will.
