A moment’s hesitation. That’s all that it took. opportunities missed by just a glance and a look. Never stop, never pause, just live it up.
Tyler Scott
It sometimes takes me a second to think about what I want to say. I fantasize that this is because there are a million little people between my ears debating what the best thing would be for me to say. They each look like someone I have known and they each espouse a value that I have had put into my mind. Usually, and sometimes regrettably, the loudest one win.
Peter Soto
I have been taking a pause in going to my writers group. I decided that over the Summer I wouldn’t go. I think the break has been good for me.
chrisy
I pause my music to write for this prompt. The silence is ringing. I come up with nothing still.
I sit out the remaining seconds until the satisfying ‘ding’ of a job well done is heard.
I feel like I haven’t done much at all, and I am completely correct.

It is always nice to take a pause and just sit and dwell on the good things of life, the blessings of god and his goodness to you and your family

And stop to listen to the sound of the beat, the pulse, the wave of all good and evil. It’s just a little murmur, thick and strong and every foot (pat,pat) goes along.
I didn’t mean for this to rhyme. There is this connective fiber and it underlines every hesitation in the rhythm, every pause.
There is a moment of blackness in between that f’in carnival of lights.

Don’t pause in a game unless it is to stop and tend to the injured or to explain a strategty to win a game.

She paused suddenly, hearing the footsteps that echoed from the hallway. They were sharp and slow, and consistent with the hollow drum playing that tore through the walls.
Tani
A moment in time. you have stopped, unknowingly.
You don’t take the time to stop and unwind anymore. it has caught up with you. You are being forced to pause.
Helen
Break, the moment between work and work….. what you push when you have to go to the Bathroom in the middle of a movie.
Natalia Berrio

pause wait STOP. I have nothing to say, my thoughts are paused, my life is paused. I need to GO not pause. Move Me.
Lanee
When I saw this word I immediately paused in my thinking. It took me a sec to figure out what I was going to write, 60 seconds sure is a long time, now that is a long pause!
Josh Lanning
stop, wait, come back. I didn’t mean it. Wait!
I need you. Save me. From myself. Help. Wait! Come back to me.

When he looks at me, I pause.
I turn away and go on my way.
Three seconds later, he is running after me.
Then he pauses.
He kisses me.

She stood very still. The wolf paused his circling and sank down in front of her. He smiled and looked at her with eyes of, oh no it can’t be. How can she be friends with someone who changes to this – this – thing? And she knows in her heart that she loves him no matter what.
Dee
i paused as i saw the yellow bird sitting on the fence in my backyard. it seemed to stare at me from across the yard; it made me uneasy and i looked away. curiosity overwhelmed me and i looked back.
sarah
I looked at him and paused. He took my breath away and momentarily I was stunned. Something was so beautiful in those sea-foam eyes and perfect lips that I couldn’t think of anything else. I wasn’t sure what made him better than the other guys that desired me but he was. For him, I would try again. With him, I could be brave.
This guy was not Prince Charming but he was certainly special.
Noctrina Galleta White
Breathe. Pause. This is the good part. This is the meat of the story. Wait for it – it will come around just as surely as the music comes around on the guitar just before the singer begins. Just as surely as the leaves burst out on the branches after the frost has ended.
Dee
It’s waiting. Just sitting there. This intangible thing that is just sitting there in the middle of what you are attempting to do. It waits. It is. It pauses.
Richard
pause is a pretty cool word. it’s not as bad as “stop”! pause…it sounds quite nice, actually! some people may not want to hear this word, but it can be helpful.
katie kring-schreifels
I don’t know what to say. I’m completely lost. I look in your eyes and it feels like the whole world is standing still. Like I am in a different dimension controlled by some superior being and he has the pause button on. I wish there was something to say or do but I’m completely frozen. You have me at your knees.
Pandles
Hm i dont know where i want to go O_O
megan
There it was, the pause. Always the pause. He would start to say I love you and she would hold her breath to listen more carefully for it. It. The pause. He couldn’t say the words without hesitating. That’s how she caught him in the lie.
Dee

Pandles
I kept playing the tape over and over again, hitting pause when it got to the part where he proposed to by best friend. I would hit pause and stare trying to convince my eyes that they were not seeing what they were seeing but no matter what direction I tried to come at it from the truth remained.
Dee
Pause, stop, and then continue. I neeed to breathe to clear my head. And sadly, I am hungry. I haven’t made up my mind yet…is it red already? Or do I still… time’s out.
Edna Paulet
If you take a second and pause you can really understand the true meanings of life. I have taken a second to pause this summer and realize that family and close friends are really all that matter. Yes meeting new people and spending quality time with them is great, but you shouldnt fret over losing old friends that have decided to move on. It is also great to pause and get to know yourself where you are right now.
Bee
I had to pause for a moment when I saw him at the piano. Why didn’t they mention he would be playing tonight of all nights? This was the time I wanted to show how strong I was, how independent and healed. Then I saw him, and the party is over.
Layla Macoran
Pause is like when life stands still, when there is no future and no past, just now. You want to pause when everything seems perfect and tranquil. Don’t we all wish we hada pause button?
Chris Wood
she paused mid sentence and realized what she was about to say would change their lives forever. should she or shouldn’t she. Go
cathy
pause. look around you. think about the people you know. the people you love. and breathe.

I paused at the computer. Did I really just see that, or was it my imagination. I could have sworn there was a flicker of something across the screen. Perhaps my imagination, I had just watched three horror movies back to back, but despite being sure it was my imagination, I still did not havet he courage to turn around. Maybe it was just an ad flickering on the page that disappeared? Maybe a bird at the window…in a thunderstorm. Probably not the bird then.

I think of the pause that means a comma – a pause in speech, a pause in writing…the breath that it takes between two words. It means a dash between two words…it can be intense or calm.
A moment’s hesitation. That’s all that it took. opportunities missed by just a glance and a look. Never stop, never pause, just live it up.
