Not loaded with sweetness like yours
It is bitter
With that added stress on the 'R'
Like you do
A fragrant
Flavoursome bitterness
Just like that first sin of us
I see it brew
In that caraffe of clear water
Racing around
Warming up
Colouring the pure water
In brown
A deep dark coffee brown
My brows frown
As I concentrate
On the bubbles
And the froth
Making love
Then breaking down
Tired
And then it is time for me
To add that pinch of salt
Balancing the sweetness
The sweetness of your coffee
And the sweetness in you
To drown
Drown in the bitterness
Of the brown brew
Soaking in the first sin
Together with you
