The Pause

Maybe in a different time,
some time far ahead
I will reflect on where I stand
snd no longer feel such dread.

Loneliness brings me back to you,
draws you back into my mind.
These thoughts fill me with excitement
yet I fear the make me blind.

Like a vessel lost at sea,
My thoughts toss to and fro.
Is this what is best for me?
With you, into the future go?

I didn't think it would be like this.
That love would be so unclear.
I felt sure I would be directed,
And know when it was near.

Is it pride that makes me wary?
Or does fear have another cause?
Until I see more options
I cannot help but sustain the pause.
