Coffee Shop Romance

dbremner

With your finger

You twirl your hair

Smile across the table

And in shyness look away

 

I just look down

Smile to myself

Think how lucky I am

That you are here with me

 

This room is full

Of other folk

But they are merely given

Supporting roles in this play

 

My misplaced foot

Touches your leg

Quickly I say 'sorry'

But we both know that I'm not

 

I'd take you now

Up close to me

I'd hold you here so tight

And I'd never let you go

 

But this cafe

Is not the place

For two to boldly love

Each other for all to see

 

Except like this

Quiet and subtle

Yet ever more sincere

Over both our coffee cups

 

The world goes by

But not for us

We're wrapped in this our game

For we're only starting out

 

But we both know

We've reached the point

The point of no return

Darling we've begun to Love.

    You have such a way to make a coffee shop so tender and anticipated that makes me feel longing and ... well that's my affair.
