staring at this brew called coffee

staring at this brew called coffee
but not drinking

I got a letter this morning

...

I recognized the messy script
and my heart beat a little faster

I hummed as I made the coffee sat down in my favourite chair

I smiled, opening the letter

and then my heart froze

I was stuck on this one sentence
couldn't comprehend

sorry, there's someone else

...

staring at this piece of paper
reading one word at a time

but there's no understanding

slowly, the paper falls
drifts down to the carpet

and I stare at this brew called coffee
clutching the cup like a lifeline

one word in my mind only
stabbing through the tears

why??
