starbucks

caffeine runs through my veins
caramel macchiato was when
i told him i loved him
then i never touched it again
afraid of tasting his regret
cappuccino is after, my
tongue hugging what is
always familiar, i smother the foam
with chocolate and vanilla powder,
for absent love, and a dash of
cinnamon to cure my impatience
lately i have been drinking
Passion
the hot sparkling liquid burning
my lips, honeyed to submission
it is refreshing to be not alone
while i finish a tall cup
watching you
