Espresso

I love you

You're just like my ex

I need you every morning.

in the evenings,

I'm obsessed with your scent

It's hard to sleep with you

you make me restless.

You take all my time

you're at the top of my expense list.

You've filled all my notebooks,

coffee stained, but scentless.

My head hurts when I don't have you

all the rough days when I've tried to remove you...

I'm addicted to you, but I don't care.

I'll never lose you.

My lust for you makes my mind bare.

bareheaded,

you're tangled in my hair.

You make me believe you're all I need.

Some days,

you're all I digest

and I wonder why my stomachs stressed.

I stave myself

because of you.

Truthfully,

I don't really need you.

But I must confess.

I love you,

and I'll never lose you.

Espresso.
