sunset

I watch the sun set

alone

the last flickers of orange/red

disappear

I sip my wine slowly

remembering all the

sunsets

I have seen 

without you

a single tear

dolls down my cheek

as the last flickers

of sun

disappears

I finish my wine

and get up slowly

as I turn

I hear a voice

“Sorry I’m late honey.

Can I have a glass of wine?”

the tears

fall to the floor
