Engagement

I only borrow time for moments to last

Wear the best outfit that your mother asks

This should be the happiest event of my life

If only he didn't call and changed his mind.

You gave me a piece of assurance for years

Make preparation plans just to be canceled in minutes

You left me hanging on this deadly edge

Wondering if I will still be alive if I let go of your hand.

Now I'm at this last party that I will attend to

I absentmindedly stare at this dark window

Everybody was anticipating the gist of this event

I can only imagine the stares I will get next.

You showed up not wearing the coat that I gave you

You said it was your favorite, but now I don't know if you truly mean it

I felt the cold of December in your eyes when you apologize

I know that I can't change your mind.
