I finally drink coffee.

 

Was not a coffee drinker.

Was not a fan because it's bitter.

Life's so sweet for I don't need coffee to make it better.

At least that what I have thought earlier.

Not until I realised,

Life has been hard

I fell and crashed

Hopeless and crumpled within whys and hows?

To look back how I miss the old smiles and awes

The butterflies and the flowers

The scents and the colours

for I was once believed everything is ours.

Wilted and gone, 

broken and torn.

Thought you were a home,

but guess I was wrong?

Coffee is bitter.

But life is alot more to compare.

Now I finally drink coffee,

so I can believe that

If I can quench a cup of bitter coffee,

Then I must be able to survive life. 

You'll see.
