Poetic or musical pause (7)

I believe the answer is:

caesura

(Other definitions for caesura that I've seen before include "Short pause in a line of verse" , "Pause or interruption (in conversation or prose)" , "Pause near middle of verse line" , "Break in line" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
