A ring taken out of a pocket
A knee upon the ground
A sudden look of shock
stares from the tables all around
A hand placed over a mouth
A terrible moment of waiting
A stomach that begins churning
Why is she hesitating?
A side to side head movement
An "I'm sorry, I have to go"
A crowd of diners looking embarrassed
Secretly enjoying this sad show
A confused man once again standing
A ring put back away
An immediate case of denial
She's just having a bad day
A mind slowly coming to a realization
A single tear falling from an eye
She's never going to love me
Neither of us know why
