SAD BARISTA
I tasted sadness,
Even before I saw your eyes
They were balls swimming in burning lakes,
Overwhelmed.

Who drinks such cold coffee?
So black, so bottomless,
Colder than the icicles that line an igloo
Freezing my veins,
I felt so much when you grabbed my face
Breathing fire down my throat
Melting, my blood flows so smoothly now
I warm you up
I'm your morning cup of cocoa
Settling in your wintered stomach.

You cried gasoline into my chest,
Causing a fire to erupt in my ribcage
It's burn so hot, it hurts
But I didn't push you away
I held you tightly
You...
