I was contented with the taste
Of my coffee, of my daily cup
It may not be the best tasting
But it was part of my usual setup
It was the coffee I've always known
I loved the blend, it was made for me
That was what I firmly believed
Until I had a taste of your coffee
I never knew how bitter mine was
The mix of your caffeine, perfect
Creamy, sweet and bitter balanced
I can't help but think I was tricked
Though I'm thankful to have tasted
A sip from a blend of perfection
I would have been better of without it
It was a gulp of bittersweet destruction
For the blend made just for me
Will never taste the same again
The coffee that I thought I loved
Barely evaded an undeserved end
Now, the coffee that I've come to know
The contenting blend I was proud of
Lost its captivating effect and aroma
It was no longer the coffee that I loved
I didn't need to taste the best to know
That mine wasn't and that it was lacking
I still am thankful for the cup you gave
I was bewildered and twas eye opening
Though painful, I must admit that
My favorite taste now is your coffee
Now I long for your perfect blend
As I sip the daily cup made for me
