Sway, Sway; Poem by Jessica Lowe

On my hips, your hands they lay;
In perfect timing, to the rhythm we sway
The world around us they stop, they stare
But it doesn’t bother us
We don’t know they are there.
Because within that moment
So perfect, So true
No one else matters
It’s just me and you.

I stare into your eyes,
And is here I want to stay,
In your warm embrace
In the grass as we lay
The world slips away
Till the silence is piercing
I’m left with nothing to say
Hearing only your breathing
