It was six in the morning
The sun was rising
I had to get moving
No time for more sleeping
I grabbed the coffee pot
Today was the day
Ten am was so far away
I knew I could do it
Seven in the morning
The songbirds calling
I was ready for it all
The clock moving slowly
I opened the window
What a beautiful day
This was the start
Of our life together
Eight in the morning
Come on come on
I pulled on my outfit
And brushed my hair
I was so in love
With all of her
Ten am was the perfect time
In the perfect day
Nine in the morning
Only an hour to go
I smarten myself
And pocket the ring
She doesn’t know
Today is the day
I will propose
Hoping she will say
Yes to my love
Together it begins
Our life together
No matter the sins
9:52 in the morning
I arrive in the park
Jittering and happy
I scan for her mark
She comes towards me
I am no shaking
Can we talk
She says a seat is taken
Of course
I reply
So ready to ask
I sit beside her
Waiting at last
I can not do this
She says with a frown
What does she mean
She is so down
I love you so much
Well I love you too
But I cannot do this
Anymore with you
She gets up and leaves
I am still sitting
I watch her go
She really is leaving
Come back to me
What did I do
The ring in my hands
We can’t be through
She isn’t coming back
It’s eleven a.m
I have not moved
Still staring at the crack
I feel so broken
But I do understand
The day is still beautiful
In my two hands
I go to the coffee shop
Refusing to cry
A large please if you will
Can’t believe it still
Midday comes and goes
I still sit and stare
What do I do now
Love is everywhere
I see her in the park
Where we first sparked
I see her in my coffee
Where we ate toffee
I see her in the sunny sky
I see her in the clouds so shy
I see her in my hands
Even in the silly wristbands
God I still need her
Beside me
I need to forget it
How does it fit
