Confidence with Coffee

I feel like this sometimes.

When I have the sensation of coffee in my veins, I feel empowered, awake, more like myself..and the dependancy scares me a bit.

It might be something with the fact that in college I was heavily dependant on it in order to get me through the day, through the weeks, and months, the study sessions(which i would study 8-10 in a row)and the coffee shops I would visit with friends and family.

I just hope that this dependancy will not shorten my life too much. Heck old peeps live long drinking coffee in the mornings...I guess it just depends on my health and genetics, etc..In that case, I need to watch out for cholestrol and eating less greasy foods, cuz those are issues on my mom and dad's side.

Im listening to Pilate pronounced pilot. They are a good band. I recommend, Melt in the walls and travel song.

Confidence with coffee
and outlet for myself
to feed on the energies before me
stuff of me
usually left untold

until the first sip
that lingers on my lips
its bittersweet
the taste and the texture
it makes me feel somewhat complete

and as it trickles down into my soul's hunger pit
I realize the power of the bean
to manipulate emotions and moods
and why on earth does it exist?

Is it for pleasure that then turns to pain
or is it all a matter of perception and whether or not
it is chosen to be shown in a particular light?

I love coffee
but the crash is hard
if one becomes too high..

pace my coffee intake
riding the fine lines of pleasure
coming back down to earth to appreciate
what is my coffee high.

Ode to coffee

DRINK!

Hehe
