In the steam of morning light, you pour my heart like coffee bitter and sweet, with a swirl of uncertainty. Witty jabs fly between us, a dance of annoyance, but I catch your laughter as it hangs heavy in the air a sign, perhaps? Your distance is a wall, but every banter feels like a crack, and I wonder if you see through it, wonder if you feel the pull too. If only you knew how you pull me to you.

between foam and frown
In the steam of morning light, you pour my heart like coffee bitter and sweet, with a swirl of uncertainty. Witty jabs fly between us, a dance of annoyance, but I catch your laughter as it hangs heavy in the air a sign, perhaps? Your distance is a wall, but every banter feels like a crack, and I wonder if you see through it, wonder if you feel the pull too. If only you knew how you pull me to you.
