The cup of coffee


I don’t mind you going away

But coffee without you

Isn’t the same

I miss the teasing question

Would you like a coffee?

As if you didn’t know the answer

The crema is still there

But the feel of it on the tongue

Is dull as can be

The pleasure of the first sip

Becomes flat and tasteless

The cup is the same

The coffee is the same

So you have to be the missing ingredient!
