asking a friend what they like about a certain someone is..
like asking to identify exactly how they like their coffee.
coffee.

that his lips can wake you up faster than any espresso; that his
body smells more rich and welcoming than the packaged beans.
they always say the beans are specific to the place they originate from, with a set smell and taste; and if you look closely, you can find those bits of culture hidden in the crevices of his body, and the distinct way his name rolls off your tongue.


and sometimes you lose your want for a certain brand of coffee; the taste becomes too bitter, no matter to the amount of artificial sweetener you spill into the mug, now causing your nose to wrinkle at the smell.
