How Special Am I?

it's almost three days til my birthday,
on your calendar marked with a big circle around it.
i can't wait, you got me excited and wondering what you have planned for me.
a movie? lunch? dinner? flowers?
oooh i just can't wait.

but today i found out i'll be out of town on business.
a few hundred miles away.
i'm thinking of that big circle you have marked on your calendar
and what is happening to our plans we had?
since i'll only be four hours away, i'm thinking to myself
"it would be a lovely surprise for you to show up, and be with me on my special day."
so i write an e-mail and send it your way.

waiting for your e-mail to come in...
bleep!
okay i just recieved your e-mail.

My Love,
it's okay, i'll be seeing you after you come back from your trip. I understand you got a job to fulfill so i'll see you when you gey back. i love you with all my heart.
Your Love.

short an simple.
i expected more then just three sentences.
i was sad but i was happy he understood i had a job to do.

today is my birthday.
like every morning i check my e-mail.
i got good news today, my boss decides to let me have the weekend off.
i realize my plans with my love aren't ruined.
i rush to get in the shower and fix my hair.

phone rings its nine o'clock, i'm expecting it's you to say happy birthday,
but no.
it's my friend asking if i was going with my boyfriend on his fun trip.
seems like you planned it three days ago when i had told you i was leaving.
didn't take you very long to find something fun to do for my birthday.

so after i hang up the phone, i turn the volume on silent.
i decide i might as well not call you or take your calls.
how long should i make you wait?
