I Can't Live If Living is Without You
Coffee wakes me up in the morning I please my taste buds and warm my soul It tastes the way comfort smells, but without you to help The warmth can't last forever.
I can’t live without you, coffee,
Elixir of life, I need you
There are but three things in life I love
You are one of them
You’re salt and malt,
the only thing I’m certain of.
I crave you in a witches cauldron with a chamomile sidecar,
every time my heart is torn in two.
This liquid helps get me through the day,
Pairing it with cream and being so sweet.
Tentacles of powdered sugar hug my cup,
I can’t tear myself away from the taste
But I need a different kind of fix to get through life,
My life would be a disaster if you weren’t in it
Every morning, and without fail, you’re being seen all around me.
I can't live if living is without you, coffee.

We'z Walking on a Path Ruled By Numbers
This road has felt endless, yet limited; every step tracked. Inching away along this path, I feel trapped. Confined. Left to this narrow passage that may one day amount to something greater. Time is not a concept. Only distance. From start to finish, I laugh and cry and attempt to convince myself that this is worth it. I cannot stray. I must keep going. Every step etched, is a step taken, is measured as more than before. I cannot even recall how I got here. Maybe I don’t even really exist. Just another tick marking off a perceived presence. Of what though? I am just another line drawn. Nothing more, nothing less.
