2022 Short Story Competition

Serendipity

when the world has

gone crazy and

the waltz

playing in your

head 

is too fast 

take my hand

and lets 

dance

sway with 

me

like the

roses 

in the garden

touch my shoulder and

smile

like i

am the

warmth and comfort

the umbrella

that will shield

you 

from the storm

i feel

your face

because something

tells me that

everything

will be alright

if i just

kiss you
