Why cry? When you can laugh.
Jollied Time itself.
Seconds still sway on.
Present moments-
speak the only truth.
For the past is a fickle duel-
between a rose tinted haze.
The future is dream.
An ever present memory.

Waiting-
scrolling-
through her phone.
Cash register-
pinging-
in-
and out.
Queue.
Person ahead-
uncroaking their croak.
Words stubble out-
from the croaked.
Soy-
decaf-
caramel half strength-
latte….
please.
Waiting-
scrolling-
through her phone.
She rolls her eyes-
In dismay.
Burnt coffee-
lingers on the tongue.
Cigarette balances in-between the fingertips.
Heartache-
tinges the soul.
Tears slink down the face.
Emptiness-
surrounds.
Loneliest-
clouds around.
Defeated.
I am.
Nicotine. Caffeine.
Aromatic sanity.
Running through my veins.
