Ticks and Tocks :by Keo:

[Keo]

time is ticking away slowly
everyone keeps talking,
it's all so muffled
I look forward to seeing you

the clock ticks
the red hand tocks
I glance up to watch
while cradling my face in my hand

I ponder on things
about being alone with you
a soft blush tinges my cheeks
please don't notice
if you do I'm sure you'll say
though you will not call me 'cute' outright

the others can't know
we keep this under wraps
but how long will it stay that way?
no, I can't think about this
you're important to me

my heart flutters whenever you're nearby
I fear it will burst from my chest
do you think it's possible?
I glance back at the clock

time is ticking away
everyone keeps talking
it's all so muffled
it's the end of the day
I stand up and head out of class
there you are

you walk over to me
each stride so confident
I try to act like I don't care
but you can tell,
can't you?

you reach up with both hands
glancing about to be sure no one sees
then you do it
a kiss is placed upon my lips
so sweet and passionate

this is what I've been waiting for
watching the clock tick away
while the people kept talking
but it's all blocked out,
because I was anxious
just to be with you
