The Bean Connect

Upon entering the cafe, the scent of brewed coffee resonates the whole place;

Looking at the dessert area—-like it’s calling out for me to try to taste.

 

I ordered the “YOLO Cream” paired with some Darjeeling tea;

A mix of sweet decadence and bitterness fills me with such glee.

 

But somehow that sliver of happiness has eventually died down;

All alone, with an empty seat on front, loneliness cascaded over for me to drown.

 

My mind goes back to you——

 

When we were still young and naive;

Precious gifts from you were all I received.

In love, at first, I didn’t even believe;

But with you, ...you are all I ever see.

I was inspired to write this as I was sitting all by myself at The Bean Connect, a local cafe here in Dumguete city.
