The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

My Glass of Wine

I sit here drinking my wine 
I look over my own mind 
Over the days gone by
It gives no smile ,MY spirt is dying
What, where and when 
So many questions i try to answer
As life moves faster away

The years have dissappeared 
I can not count the missing smiles
I want to runaway
Day by day
I stay just to obey
I feel like prey
Waiting for the knock on the door

A prison gate surrounds me 
No key to the lock
I have tried
Each step seems wrong direction
Which way to go crossroads stands still
The memories tie me back

I still sit here with my glass
The bottle is still full
To love but not in that special way
It holds me here
My fear wont let go
As i sit with my glass of wine 
As i drift into a thought of unknown....
