Saturday night

Saturday Night
'Feeling blue
Standing under the Shadows in the Pub
One fine Saturday night
He said he would be here...!?
An endless wait...
And my Man is nowhere...
Hiding my weeping face away from the Light...
My Heart as if saying...'How could he ...!?
How could he leave me waiting
Not a sign of him...
Not even a text message or a call...
Peering Eyes making me uncomfortable
Drink after drink l took...
My aching Heart seemed to find solace...
The Wine seemed to sooth my Pain...
He said he loved me...!?
Tears rolling down my cheeks
Red was his color...The color of Passion...
A Red silken dress l wore just to please him
Feeling soo empty...
Finally passing out in the Pub
Morning found me in a Taxi taking me home
