Shilpa Roy Kota

You were the first thing that made my morning

You were the reason for my smile in the evening

You were the balm for my splitting headache

You were also the perfect company when I wanted to be alone

 

You made my presentations better

You got my friends together

You pushed me to never give up

With you, I always felt and alert

 

But then, we parted ways

For better or for worse, who knows

My headaches have returned

My mood swings keep me busy

 

My heart knows, you can always make things better

But my mind refuses to see the sight of you

I have never felt such a strong war inside me

Oh! What have you done to me?

 

My heart calls it innocent love

My mind calls it addiction

My Guru calls it nervous stimulant

I simply call its by it’s true name “Coffee”
