Blue eyes
Across a chipped white mug
Steam curls
You don’t say much
Sleeves rolled
You trace that paper cup
Like you’re
Tuning courage up
If I reach for your hand
Will the moment break?
If I ask you to stay
Is that one mistake
You’d still make?
Blue eyes
Black coffee
Staring right through me
You laugh and the room tilts slow
Say my name so softly
Like you almost lost it
One more sip and I might let you know
Blue eyes
Black coffee
You feel like home
