Peaceful Coffee

For all the coffee lovers in the world. 
Peaceful Coffee
My brain was rattled
From a day of chaos
Decisions gone wrong
Friends seeking a battle
.
I didn’t make choices
To offend them on purpose
So now I relax in my kitchen
Trying to clear my head of voices
.
I take this cup and set it aside
It’s surface inviting and oh so smooth
My heart measures the mix to match my mood
Each cup becomes something I make with pride
..
In mere moments it will warm me inside
Help me forget the words that hurt my friends
I couldn’t care to remember my choices
But this cup of coffee may help me decide
.
Decisions like these are best left to a peaceful mind
As I could never hope to be wise right now
Nor could I know how to apologize
I’ll just drink more coffee and leave this behind
.
So today, I take my coffee dark and black
Trying to make it so bitter as I revive my life
It reminds me that my life was always tasteful
Yet tells me the things that I now lack
.
I sometimes drink it fast and with worry
When I cannot slow my pace or my mind
But today I’ll drink it slow and calm
For I’m thinking of friends and don’t want to hurry
.
I’ll drink this cup with you in my thoughts
Thinking of saying my apologies for saying too much
This day will end as I sip through these subtle thoughts
This is damn good coffee- even if I feel distraught
.
This remedy has been a faithful friend
When my spirit is cold and lost
This cup of desire fills my mind
Giving me time to simply enjoy this unique blend
