The gentle pours of wine kiss the glass.

she takes it all in, and a soft trace of red lipstick leave a mark.

The hot pink lights shine brightly, the lights which come from the sign which greets, "welcome"

She hears the piano playing softly, while the jazz band sing to her ears

She smirks a bit while she places the wine glass down.

She remembers her past and sometimes comes here to gather up these memories

To her right, she sees a man, about 6 foot with dirty facial hair and classy side burns, who looks as if he's searching for his lost love

His eyes are fixed on the bar table as his fingers are barely touching his glass cup

his eyes droop with sadness, she stares at him for a bit with stern eyes.

To himself, he repeats these few words, "alicia...alicia..."

She slaps the wine glass onto the table and orders another shot

the bartender pours while his eyes look upward toward her face.

He asks, "so what brings you here?"

She doesnt stare back at him but just smiles a bit and says, "no reason. sometimes a person just has to remember their past if you know what i mean."

The bartender doesnt speak a word, just nods while grabbing a towel to wipe the table.

She looks up at the man with the sad eyes and embraces all her surroundings, the jazz band, the bartender, the lights.

And thinks to herself, "just another memory.."
