The coffee shop reeked of introspection It was quiet but noisy at the same time From slight chattering that flittered the patio to cars battling in traffic She felt like she finally belonged The smell of coffee thrilled her She would romanticize each cup Just the thought of hot steam curling around her lips as they pressed against the lovely mug made her quiver She was never very patient Every sip would slightly burn her tongue But that never seemed to bother her She valued the little things Each sip, exhibited a moment of warmth, relief, and sincerity In between each sip, her mind found relief After each sip, sincerity found itself to be ironically bitter It was 82 degrees and she found her coffee to be just as warm as the sun Too busy romanticizing the view around her She burnt her tongue once again
