Waking up every morning
The sight of you comforts me
I could smell you from a distance
A reason to smile, to reach out
Your fragrance teases me, tempts me
Pushes me beyond the edge
Heightens my senses, now sharp as ever
Ready for an epic battle
And as I see your golden body
Merge with the milky white
Making heart shapes on your surface
With a creamy texture
And the taste lingers on my tongue
Ever so slowly it grows
The bitter-sweet symphony
Playing with my taste buds
And your warmth overwhelms me
Intoxicates me, makes me want to live again
Makes me want to dream, to fight, to sing
To breathe
And I realize how much I love you
My morning cup of coffee,
What would I do without you?
