we had a baby

we had a baby,
for a week.
you and i,
and me and him.
it curled up in my stomach pockets
and i wrapped my legs around your waist.
stroked your hair
like a little boy.
you sighed.
i am close to you
closer than twin embryos.
closer than how close we came.
of my head
and my imaginings.
and the two 'him's.
face laid bare.
