Ruffled in red, lips the same hue
She sits at a table, once meant for two
The champagne, now gone, an empty glass
Waiting beside her, this sorrowful lass
Hopes of togetherness, no longer exist
He left her for another, his secret tryst
She lays down her head, as sleep settles in
And dreams of a love, that never has been

Night Owl Poetry - Dorinda Duclos 
This is so beautiful. Sad. But still gives you feels. Very well written :))
Even I recently wrote a poem named ‘He says,” Do you love me?”‘ Please do check it out! 🙂 Would mean a lot to me.
