Once when I was young,

I asked my mother,

"Why do you like coffee, it's bitter!"

She gave a soft laugh and said,

"You'll know when you're older."

Now I am older and now I understand

They do not drink coffee for the taste, but I find 

That it is for scorching the tongue 

And the pain on your tongue is better then the one in your mind
