Coffee ?
There was a day when all was fine, all was goodThe day's long gone and these eyes have seen several more sunsets after that
Yet last night as I drifted off into a dreamless sleep, I knew today was going to be different
Call it intuition, call it hope. Call it wishful thinking
Today dawned just fine and I woke up to a great start
The coffee didn't seem bitter nor was the toast burnt
In fact the day was so good, there wasn't even a roach in the food today
People were smiling and even the flowers were in full bloom
I walked into work with a list of thngs to do and things to get done
I checked my mail and stretched my hands just as you called
I'm sure you can hear me smile over the phone
Something inside me stirred and the warmth seemed to spread
It was clear that I like you and I didn't wish to hide what was true
"Coffee?", you said. I'd already had my share but how can I deny
A coffee with you means spending time with you
I said yes and grabbed my mug
You walked into my cube and smiled at me
I smiled back but that smile was fake compared to the smile of my heart
We talked of nothing important, of nothing show stopping
But I remember the way your eyes moved as you spoke
The way your hands made gestures
The way your lips curved when you smiled
Back in my cube now, I work on 'em test cases
But every now and then when I take a breather
I look at my coffee mug and think of you
Another cup of coffee I may not need
But some time with you ? Hell, I'm definitely game :)
