This Coffee Isn't the Only Bitter Thing Here

i hope she loves you more than her thoughts could ever build the words.

i want her to hold your hand and laugh when you say the dumbest jokes.

whisper seductive things to make you stay.

i hope you stay.

happy? of course!

i hope she makes your grin stretch so far

you need a gps to find your way back to sanity.

i hope she leaves “i love you” spelled out in magnets on the fridge.

you deserve it! yes, yes, you do.

when you’re on the verge of tears

i hope she’s close enough to catch them just before they hit the floor.

i hope her kiss leaves you drunk and parched.

i hope you yearn, lust, fall so hard

that nor cement, concrete, or bricks could bring you to a halt.

let her be the best thing that’s ever stepped into your life.

memorize every inch from the strands of her hair to the space between her toes.

i hope her taste stains your tongue.

her touch leaves prints on everything.

i hope she tells her friends about you and lets her parents know you’re the one.

if you both happen to run into me

i’ll smile and chat about my day

ignoring that what she is to you

you used to be to me.

(but most of all i hope she breaks your heart.)
