One last glass of wine


Another midsummer crush
Heartbeats in a rush
Face in a flush

Her apathy hurts me to the bone
Even when I’m here, alone
Wallowing in this  throne

From the moment my pupils fell
Unto that smile I know so well
I’ve been trapped in this unrelenting hell

The lines on her face
Put my passion into place
with effortless grace

As her giggles start showing
Her big brown eyes glowing
My desire only growing
without her even knowing

Futile flirtations,
insincere conversations
lead to mortifying frustrations
and heart palpitations

One last glass of wine
To help forget this fever burning
To convince myself that everythings fine
And to ignore this ceaseless yearning
