Do you hear this song?

It was the one,

That was supposed to play that night.

What night you ask?

The night where,

I had flowers on the bed,

Candles lit all around,

“Love and Basketball” in the DVD player,

And General Tso’s chicken,

On the table,

Ready for us to eat.

I spent the whole day,

Preparing for that night.

I didn’t even have a car,

So I had to get everywhere,

On my own two feet.

But it was all going to be worth it,

Cause I spent the whole day,

Just imagining the smile on your face.

The hour finally came,

When you were supposed to arrive.

I watched the clock,

With eager anticipation.

Tic

Sadly that night never happened,

Cause you didn’t come around.
