CHOCOLATE SYRUP IN A COFFEE

The chocolate syrup in a coffee,
sweetness to their ever-bitter footprints.
You're the genuine flavor I craved for—
showed me love can be more than just sour.
My taste has been ramshackle and shamed yet
you gave sustenance to my heart they've wasted.

My man said to make "chocolate syrup in a coffee" a romantic poem so I did.
