You made my day. Like a cheap good kick of a cuppa in the morning.
I wasn’t looking for anything. I was just wandering and strolling around the town and found you, ever so effortlessly being your goofy-adorkable-smarty-pants self. Like a stunning, peaceful coffee shop in the middle of the town.
I don’t know where we’re going. We don’t even know each other. But, do we need to?
If you love to win the game, and I love to play the rule, why can’t we just dance under the pouring rain? Closing the gap between time and space, separating hopes and dreams from reality.
If you like the ride, and I like to get high, why can’t we just hold each other in ecstasy? Let’s celebrate us like tomorrow is the day these feelings die.
You were standing, pouring everything out of your head. I was watching, hands tied, eyes glued, mesmerized. Completely ignoring the truth that maybe, happily ever after is a far-away concept for our eventually sinking ship.
But I don’t mind if we only hold each other under the shadows, where nothing is meant to be but us. And I don’t mind if by the morning, we have to go our separate ways, living in a lifetime where we don’t mean to be.
I don’t mind.
Maybe in another lifetime, our love blossoms free without fear of losing and letting go. Maybe in another lifetime, we can hold and love each other under the sun, through the summer breeze, ’til the happily ever after.
Maybe in another lifetime, loving you is enough. Maybe in another lifetime, I am enough for love.
Now, allow me to finish the last cup of your heart for one last time.
Let’s meet again once I mend my broken heart and you get yourself figured out.
Until then,
Thanks for the coffee.

Do you believe in coincidence? Do you believe in destiny?
The initial draft for this was written in 2019. I procrastinate so hard and never finished it to the point of forgetting it completely. I finally found this again just recently, for reasons I can’t tell.
There are many resemblances and some becomes self fulfilling prophecy. Odd yet, fascinating.
