Sway
By Nora Duke
Tick tock
It’s you on the clock
The time stops
And you
Stay
Your flowy white dress
So excited
To be worn
The florals on it smile
Watch me
As I hold your hand
My suit laughs
Because a young coward like me
Get a pure lily
Like you
Time
Swallows like a lion
Flies like a bird
None of its bits can be caught
Except when it comes to
Me
And you
The fondness we have for each other
Makes time
