The steam was slow, your stare was slower
You stirred your thoughts like sugar over
No one spoke, but I still knew
What you were trying not to do
You drank me in with half a glance
And left the rest to circumstance
Beneath the quiet cup, we hid
All the words we never did
The warmth still lingers, just like you
Gone, but heavy in the brew
We talked with silence, kept it clean
Pretended peace was in between
But every sip still tastes like you
Soft, unsaid, but always true
