The Girl at the Coffee Shop

 

I stole a glance at her
conceiving that she would make a fresh-baked goody
to accompany my coffee

Her hair is black and shiny
and her eyes are luminous milkyway
She could make the perfect companion
for mountain getaway

I wish all these caffeine
could make my heart talk
not rattling in my chest

I could offer to buy you a drink
but all I do
is strangling myself with this silence,
grayscale vision and melancholy repercussion

as my dream of you being the refreshing treat in the morning

—- fades away

LAUGH XD

It’s funny that I can picture myself laughing with you all day long.
Despite the fact that my eyes dried out for over-crying, knowing that my love for you is the biggest joke of all.

At least I won’t cry whenever I remember you. At least your lame punch-lines still give me midnight chills as I no longer enjoy sleep; and the urge to see humor in every unfortunate events.

It’s better to showcase you on the elf’s shelf of my heart, rather than trying to hide our joyous memories — because my heart can explode as they keep self-replicating.

I might be just the echo of your past, but you remain the sweet sounds of a slot machine;
that keeps giving me sinful random rewards, but not your lottery-chanced heart.
