The Difference

The difference
The one that bothers
A preference, a mood,
A circumstance
Two bodies close to each other
Disagreeing
With those who think too much,
Morals over everything else
Their skin will never marvel at the differences
They look alike, touch on another,
Like those two dancing men
Without ever speaking
Without ever screaming
They love each other in silence
Without ever lying or turning back
They trust each other
If only you knew how much they don't care
About those insults
They prefer love, especially true love
To our whispers
They often talk
Of other people
Who love each other so much
Who love each other, as we say, "normally"
Of this child
So absent
Of this blood disease that runs
And kills so freely
Their eyes will never stray by carelessness
They recognize each other, tame each other
Like these two dancing women
Without ever speaking
Without ever screaming
They love each other in silence
Without ever lying or turning back
They trust each other
If only you knew how much they don't care
About those insults
They prefer love, especially true love
To our whispers
From Verlaine to Rimbaud,
When you think about it,
We tolerate exceptional difference
Without ever speaking
Without ever screaming
They love each other in silence
Without ever lying or turning back
They trust each other
If only you knew how much they don't care
About those insults
They prefer love, especially true love
To our whispers
The difference,
When you think about it,
But what's the difference?
