Liquid Addiction
Deep inside my veins runs blood and something darker
Seeping through my skin and giving off an alluring odor
The pleasant taste of bitterness that encaptures the morning
As birds outside my window yearn for their own liquid warming
The black addiction swirls as you add cream of sweet
Two spoons of sugar and a boost of energy cannot be beat
Made in ways unique to your personal tongue
Each blend contains a taste of caffiene enough for anyone
When mornings are too hard to bare, it will bring you to your feet
With a smell that can bring you out of the deepest sleep
As good as a simple pleasure can be
A cup of Joe will bring your day around quite easily
Like walking into the quaint little shop off the corner of Broad Street
Or hearing the soft crunch as you step on a leaf
It is the simple things in life that will set you free
Happiness will surround you
As long as you have coffee.
