Time, stand still
Please stand still
I’ve chased you for so long
Join me in rapture
Love me with urgency
I’ll be your tic, you my toc
Or I’ll toc and be the reason you tic
Just don’t keep rushing me through this space
Wait for me,
Only me
And give me all you’ve got
In return, I’ll never leave you
You are my everything
Each time I look
And each time I embrace
Your longevity
The space of freedom
Is infinitely yours
And promised to everyone but me
Not enough to go around
Stand still, stand silent,
Stop running,
And share with me.
At least for a little while
