MISSING YOU

Rick Haynes
Here I sit, all alone on our faded cream sofa.
My feet are hanging over one of the dark wooden arms, as my hand grasps the tumbler ever tighter.
The half-empty bottle on the coffee table speaks volumes, as my eyes shed droplets, like the whiskey tears running down the outside of the glass.

My mate! My best friend!
I really, really..........
Miss him!
