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
