From my thoughts to my lips and in my veins, I am sickly besotted with you. Without you I’m in pain. I crave for you from dawn to dusk, Finding relief only in my slumbers, when I dream Of others, not of you.
For you don’t pertain to my hours of darkness, There are limits to what you can give. When you sleep With me I don’t, I fidget and tremble, toss and turn In bed as you flow right through me provoking shivers. I hence lie without you, longing to awake.
When I do rise to the morning beams penetrating My windows overpoweringly, my mind gallops towards You commanding my feet to follow, my eyes to find you. You are there. You are always there. Faithfully waiting For me where I left you.
Your loyalty besieges me and I surrender to the smell Of your strong black hot body, yearning for you taste, Gulping your exotic essence to the last drop, smoking Cigarettes before, during and after our ritual *******. I say I love you, they are worried I’m addicted to you.
The last time we accidentally drifted apart I was afraid. Four days without you drove me insane, perennially drenched In a cold sweat, devastated by stomach cramps and panic Attacks, feeling ill beyond remedy. The doctor sentenced I was suffering from withdrawal symptoms and I had to be
Strong. I ignored him and came running back to you Promising I would never live you again, toying with Your powdery texture slipping through my fingers, Inebriated by your vapours as your liquid substance Produces that oh-so-familiar gurgling noise.
Just in case it is not clear, this poem is about coffee!
