The Red Wine Widow?

Crisp, clean cotton sheets smelling of red wine
Oh why do you have to drink
Husband of mine?
Every Friday tea time is always the very same
You pour your first glass of wine
I think it’s such a shame
Whilst you stare at the tv screen
I am watching you
That glazed expression on your face
As you fill glass number two
It’s as if you have a magic glass
I never ever see the bottle
As I glance across the room
Your complexion is a grey, puckered mottle
Every single weekend as soon as its Friday night
It’s an identical routineÂ
Me in my emotional plight
I’m lying in my bed you are facing my way
Wishing you’d turn around
I can only hope & pray
I hate this wafting smellÂ
filling the bedroom
As I lie feeling only sadness & habitual gloom
When your head hits the pillow
The noises appear
You pop & blow every other second I fear
Minutes laterÂ
my allergy is back
I am completely stuffed up
With a dam coughing attack
So I gather my tinnitus aidÂ
I creep away to the spare room
As I’m coughing & spluttering
In a state of exhaustion & doom
You hate me in the other room
So I lie with unease
It’s early hours of the morningÂ
As I cough & wheeze
A strange pattern of eventsÂ
Alas I know so well
I hate the weekends
Saturday’s the same Oh hell
I am a red wine widower
It has got a hold of you
You cannot live without it
Tho it makes me so blue
But it is taking it’s toll
Your hands continuously shake
I wish you’d get sick of it
& Give me a break
Years & years of the same sickening sulphur smell
Oh how I hate your red wine habit
It’s driving us to hell
