The Shadow

Our paths crossed
 
one warm May
 
destiny entwined our hands
 
impulses did the rest
 
as we shared dialogue
 
about what comes and goes
 
next.
 
We were two apples
 
that hit the ground
 
ready to be sliced open
 
made into a wonderful pie
 
to be covered with ice cream
 
melt together at twilight.
 
I shall forever dwell
 
in the shadow
 
you designed.
