Coffee

you never liked coffee

to bitter you'd say

you'd always pour tons of sugar

and milk in it then offer me some

because 'a person so sweet

'shouldn't be exposed to something so bitter'

i'd always blush when you

told me how sweet i was

and i'd politely say 'no thanks'

yet always end up drinking your coffee

instead of my own because it did indeed taste bitter

and you'd laugh kiss my cheek

and say 'i told you it was to bitter sweetie

and i'd poke my tongue out and

playfully punch your arm and say

'i like drinking from yours because

'it tastes like your lips'

then you'd grin and i'd smile

cheesily i might add before you'd kiss me

and say how much you loved me

how much you'd always love me

'beyond infinity' as you'd say

it saddens me to think of

how short our infinity was

but you're still here with me

every time i sit in our little cafe

drinking coffee with tons of sugar and milk

just the way you liked it
