I guess I thought when I stopped time,
It would do the same for you as well.
I thought if I stayed waiting,
That I would keep you held.
I figured that we meant our words
And wanted what we said.
I never thought this distance
Could put those plans to death.
I thought when I sat alone
That your life mirrored mine.
I considered love to be our secret word.
I am such a child.
I felt that when my eyes slid closed
Your world also went dark.
I thought we were on the same page,
Although so far apart.
I thought when I stopped time
That it would mean the same for you.
Alone but together,
But I guess that wasn't true.
