Pause

Here we are again.
We are halted, we are stopped.
Stopped, or paused.
Yes, paused, not stopped...
“Postponed ‘til further notice”
At least the train’s still coming.
This time there’s future in your words,
A one day wonder that I trust,
I will wear it every day and know
That only you can see it.
I match you hope for hope,
Promise for promise,
I promise forever
To love you, always,
To trust you, always,
To wait for you, to live for ‘us’,
This one day wonder that I trust.
