Love Poem: Coffee With Them

Coffee With Them

I sit alone,
Rain peppering my coat,
I stare at the sky,
Gloomy, grey and sad,
Three words I never thought I would relate so much too,
But even in the gloomiest, dispiriting moments,
Love still stands around me,
So, reluctantly I sip the cup of love, destiny and dreams.
Hmm…
Nothing has ever tasted so bitter, sour and disgusting.
But then you come and sit beside me.
Offering another cup of love, destiny, dreams,
Because its from you, I give it another chance,
And suddenly,
Love, destiny, and dreams,
Have never tasted better.
