The coffee in Balcony
Annisa Kusumawardhani 2000 (Bekasi)
The sun shined brightly,
As we made our way to the balcony
But when the rain drops suddenly
The sky looked fairly heavy
You brew your kettle quickly,
And the coffee smells heavenly
The cup looked very worthy,
Of anything that you would see
You drink your cup of coffee
In time, you are hoping i look lovely
I'm not your darling, you see
It was never meant to be
This wasn't the whole story
About what we are both suppose to be
You keep brewing the coffee
And say, what you think it seem to be
This moment is the longest memory,
The cardinal hope for you and me
I feel nothing for you actually
Yet, I'm still here drinking your coffee
