Thoughts After Coffee

Sadness creeps over me

like coffee granules

dissolving into hot water.

I pretended asImg_0358_1  a white creamer

subservient to darkness,

engulfed within the hallow of a cup.

I tried to release the poignancy

into an aroma,

wafting through every sip.

I hope the drinker will remember

the aftertaste of memories,

cups of these bittersweet coffees

drank one after another ..

drowning the thought

of an empty chair across.

I hope to lay awake and wait for sunrise,

begin a new day with a hot milk.

No more coffees please.Hehe.
