His Shadow

love poetry maggie mae

inside my chest, a universe
is born – yet to be touched
by hands of The Creator

he drives over city limits
lips openly rested
tongue saturated with
thoughts of fresh
female
sentiment

one particular body

conception happened
a seed was planted
it took root
in salty palmed
memories

I never have left this desert
where my heart started
he knows I can –
I will be his shadow
