A placeholder ring
Temporary meaning
I vow in-between.
Hold my spot
Til better comes along
Who is going to tie the knot.
A lady in waiting,
Eternity does not come easily
Or swiftly.
One who seeks a definite answer
Needs patience indefinitely.
Does Mr. Right
Promise all the right things
Right now,
Enough to keep me hungry?
A short-term solution
When I dream of a
Permanent situation
A preview of what is real
All I see
Is intention to commit,
When does forever start
If not today?
