Tasteless Coffee
We sat side by side
It felt as if we were miles apart
Our cups dangled with our feet
We watched as waves crashed against the walls
We talked for hours, all our words felt like whispers
Was he hiding something?
I couldn’t tell
The breeze so strong
The faint smell of salt in the air
Losing reason to care
I leaned forward, my full intention to fall
He caught me, his cup staring with an inviting glare
I arrived at it, a feeling of curiosity washing over me
Why does his coffee have no flavor?
I look back again
I wonder
Who was I talking to all this time?
