In the morning I'll wake up late and I'll take my coffee black
No sugar because mornings lack sweetness
No creamer because the mornings lack flavorThe caffeine gives me no rush
I drink my coffee in the morning alone
Sipping absently on my cup, warm to the touchThe warmth goes unnoticed now
I sit in silence, my coffee gets cold and I do not finish it
My coffee is like the morning; cold, blank, bland
It always goes to wasteIt is unaccompanied by sweetness and color
My coffee is like me
Bitter
And cold
The morning has done so to the both of us
