I Save You Day

I save you day from the night
I save you from the shadows
I save you from the nightmares
I save you by taking my time

Even time takes time
As the light needs the sun

I beg the clouds to stop for a while
And stare at me
And start to figure out 
What shape I will turn in to
While I am running beneath 
Just like I do when I look at them
When they float above me
Up in the sky

Even time takes time
As the mother needs the son

I beg the flowers
To embrace me and breathe me in
And I want them to wonder
 Where this sweet sense of smell was made
In what kind of heaven
The first, fourth or seventh
Just like I do to them
When I smell their fields of paradise

Even time takes time
Just like the day needs the night

I save you day from the night
I save you from the shadows
I save you from the nightmares
I save you by taking my time

Here, in these moments, in these seconds

I save you day

Mona, This is an intriguing take on the theme. The repetition of the line "even time takes time" followed by he simple examples created a gentle mood of expectation. Thank you for being a part of the contest - for without the writers of the poems......
