Evening Brews

Coffee steams from the mug.

Fingers embrace, trembling—

logins lost again.

 

Screen freezes mid-thought.

Words vanish like dreams.

I sip, swear, sigh.

 

Cat’s chirp. Chaos paused.

Rain slithers on the glass.

Sleep echoes its promise.

 

Drag. Drop. Copy. Paste.

Undo. Redo. Repeat.

The world mocks the simple.

 

The protagonist gets lost,

wandering in error messages.

I just want a pen.

 

A stuffed bear on the floor.

Someone I can’t reach.

Someone I’d give the world.
