Unsweetened Tea

Late November and I walk in with you.

What could a good moment possibly do?

A glove is placed by your front door.

It’s strange to think it’s not there anymore.

 

Bitter hearts are a taste that’s known to me.

I hold your hand and taste your unsweetened tea.

 

6 months in of an unflavored love.

What do you think this could be a sign of?

Four green eyes can mix up a storm.

The freezing cold of a college dorm.

 

Tartness is the way you have broken me.

I wake in the morning and drink this unsweetened tea.
