Another Night With Johnny Walker by Scott Simmons

My mind wanders as I sit at the barstool. 

And I find myself thinking of you. 

As I take a sip for every regret I’ve made. 

And I buy more rounds to get past tonight.

Until I’m the last one at the bar to close my tab.  

And I leave content with my loneliness.  

As the stars faintly glimmer above me. 

While the night winds softly cry. 

And life moves on.
