Forever on Hold

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 3 months ago 1 min read

[Verse]

She met him in the summer heat

Eyes that promised dreams

She gave him all her heart and soul

But nothing's as it seems

He sang his tune of someday soon

She danced to every word

But years have passed

The melody's one she’s already heard

[Verse 2]

She buys his clothes

She holds his hand

Treats him like a king

Her love’s a song she can’t unsing

A bird with broken wings

He talks of homes

Of kids and vows

But never sets the date

She’s holding on

The clock ticks loud

She wonders if it’s fate

[Chorus]

Forever on hold

Her story untold

A rockstar in her eyes

But his promises grow cold

She’s given her all

Now she’s starting to fall

Forever on hold

Is this love at all?

[Bridge]

She dreams of rings

Of sacred vows

A family in her arms

But he just smiles

And spins the tales

Distracted by her charms

She’s the anchor

He’s the sail

Drifting far from land

She wonders if she’s waiting for a life they’ll never plan

[Verse 3]

She sees the lines upon her face

Years she can’t reclaim

Her love’s a fire burning bright

But he won’t take the flame

She whispers late into the night

“Am I just a phase?”

But he’s asleep

A dreamer deep

While she counts the wasted days

[Chorus]

Forever on hold

Her story untold

A rockstar in her eyes

But his promises grow cold

She’s given her all

Now she’s starting to fall

Forever on hold

Is this love at all??
