The Pause
l smiled, my last smile,
as I walked across the room.
My mind was on fire,
like a summer sun in June.
I cried when I left you,
so much despair.
Yet lost and confused,
no time to repair.
So I sat down and counted
my blessings once more,
and I realized that moment,
A block in my soul.
For love is a wave
we must ride to the end.
Sometimes we are on top,
sometimes head in the sand.
I knew when we met
there'd be many rows to hoe,
but today I must say that
I'm happier at home.
