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!
