MOCHA NOIR and YOU

Motionless I look into my coffee
as it steams and moves about
And all I can see are your big brown eyes
soft as the cream in my latte.
Warm as the breeze at the end of May.
And I wonder.
Why ?
Why was I so stupid to leave you ?
Did I really think that I could live
without you?
I was so confident that I was doing
the right thing -
by taking back your ring -
That my world needed
fresh air - and new faces
Sure, I was going places.
And now here I sit
watching my burning tears
drop into my brew
Salting away the sweetness
of my mocha noir
and you.
