The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

My Glass of Wine

The days go by slowly
The hours are endless
I go through the motions
My actions are since less
Put on a smile
Like an actress on stage
Faking my happiness
Gets easier with age
The sun on my face
The wind in my hair
Feet in the sand
I haven’t a care
Glass in my hand
The color of red
An endless supply
I'm dreaming... or dead?
I wake with a start
Alone in my bed
Another ordinary day
I simply do dread
The day will come
I will bide my time
I’ll live by the ocean
With my glass of wine……

Thanks! Somestimes I get lost when I am writing and forget the P and Q's you should follow when writing a poem! I gues I am just venting!

A great way to capture a moment of reflection here. The 4th line confused me a bit, though: "Since less"? In any case, great work here!
