Pour over coffee

Depresses, I think about

Dark, bitter feelings

Notes from the Author:

I wrote this one morning while I was making coffee. The parallels between negative emotions and the process of making a cuppa were clear.

I have named this poem, “Black Water,” after one of my favourite songs by one of my favourite bands, Timber Timbre. It’s off their 2011 album, “Creep On Creepin’ On.

Thanks so much for reading, and listening if you cared to explore the musical selection!

Here is an uplifting one I think you’d enjoy!
