A coffee bean is like a kiss Between to former lovers. The sentimental aroma intoxicating the mind Until the true experience is forgotten And only a comforting wonderland remains, Full of feelings of warm security. It is weightless! Seductive, exciting, Until it is placed in the mouth And the flavor crashes in all directions: Bitter, painful, and black. When it finally fades The ashes still remain, Smoldering, laughing, A reminder of the broken thing that was shoved away: A romance only good with milk and sugar.
