In the hum of morning light,
I brew dreams steeped in coffee,
whispers of hope swirl.
The air thick with the scent of your laughter.
You dance around the counter, a porcelain figure with a past stamped in shadows, painted in stories of people who’ve failed you.
Yet your eyes hold galaxies, and I am drawn like a moth to flame. Every smile, every tilt of your head pulls me deeper into desire's abyss.
I see you measure love in cups,
holding back as if pouring too much might drown us both in sorrow.
But here I stand with my heart on my sleeve,
nervousness mixed with longing,
beneath the froth of our casual exchanges.
Can’t you feel it?
The twinge between us, a jolt like freshly brewed espresso?
Your distance wraps around us like steam.
But oh, how I wish to reach through the haze,
To peel away your layers with gentle hands,
to show you a warmth that isn’t fleeting.
I know the weight you carry,
the silent fears that shadow your smile.
But every shared moment is electric,
a spark among idleness waiting to ignite.
Stay a while longer at this barista’s bar; let our laughter foam over like cream.
With every cup crafted together,
I dare to dream what might bloom beyond these walls.
