Being alone

Gone

by Lisasview

 
Waiting for you ... 
I watch as 
dusk forms
shadows across our lawn.
 
Waiting for you ... 
I gaze out the window;
stars appear as
darkness approaches.
 
Waiting for you ... 
I see smeared outlines
of red lipstick, 
along the edge 
of your crystal wine glass.
 
Waiting for you ...
I smell your
lingering perfume 
and, begin to cry.
 
Waiting for you ... 
Night has taken over,
you are gone
and, I am alone.

Written from a mans perspective.
The sadness when you are in love but the person you love does not love you....
And, you are alone.
