Hot Coffee 
You are hotter than my coffee.
As sweet as the little white lies
The naked truth is better than the accessorised
And you are better off naked.
This is the moment I eagerly awaited.
 
You are sweeter than my favorite caramel latte.
I am not a fan of the antiquated
Not so keen; rushing things is not my forte.
On my dresser, where I want you to spread
Your hips tell the truth, but they are sugar-coated.
 
I think I am old enough to take sips.
Old enough to part my lips
Lurking aroma; I wonder about the taste.
I think I could gulp it down in one go.
But not sincerely enjoying it would be a waste.
 
Oozing cream; it's perfect
A couple of sleepless nights are worth it.
You know how I like it. pristine
A little messy and not clean
Extra caffeine; I have a strong flavour 
I like to nibble on your strawberry nips.
Jittery but I still can't resist.
 
Sip after sip, I feel the adrenaline rush.
I know you feel it too, but please, baby, hush
Take it slowly and be patient with your fingers.
You can spill all that hotness over yourself.
It's embarrassing; wait until we are indoors.
Then you can savour me and get burned.
First-degree burns, or worse, you earn.
 
I want you on top, like foam in my mug.
I can't keep my hands to myself; the storm is getting rough.
Enticing, allow me to use my tongue.
Inviting, the wait is dragging.
It's cold out here, yet your figure hardens my vigour.
I need milk and honey to warm my tummy.
You are the secret ingredient to preventing my hypothermia.
 
Listen now as I come in all kinds of variants.
Would you prefer a trenta over a venti?
Caramel and chocolate toppings?
Whipped cream on top or not?
Do you like your coffee iced or hot? 
Should we add sugar, or can you take it?
You like it bitter, don't you? Come on, admit it.
 
I don't need a coffee machine.
I can do it with my bare hands.
Try not to squirt too far and wide.
Try not to speak it into existence.
It can be as good as Starbucks.
I'll add this condensed milk real deep inside.
We can pull an all-nighter.
The looser the tightness, the sweeter and sweeter it gets.
 
Please, I don't want you to sweeten it.
Black like the night, strong and rough
Bitter taste that will linger in my mouth
Just one cup wouldn't be enough.
I will need to take this stuff every day.
I could get hooked on it. So cliche.
Every night at the same time, at the cafe
You made me forget all about the buffet.
 
I want to have you for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Turn you into a sinner.
I'll show you ways to please me.
Let's take a sip, you see.
Overflowing and so hot
You don't match the others.
I have never had one like you.
Brewed to perfection
You'll know how to start and finish my day off.
I can twirl your toes and chill your nerves.
And deeply relax your core, like music.
Nothing toxic; I can also keep you awake all night long.
 
If I can't have you at least two times a day,
I don't want you at all; there's just no way.
Like a junkie, I'm starving for that caffeine.
At this point, I can't allow myself to be picky.
I would go to great lengths to consume any kind of bean.
I will allow you to grind me as you see fit.
Once I'm finely ground, you can quit.
And that's not the end.
Continue with the next step.
Brew me slowly on the stove, just like you said.
Once it's done, savour me, and then
Do it all over again.
 
I don't want to be sober.
I want to feel high and have electrifying energy.
That only you provide
With you on my side
My mind is at peak performance.
And then I can give you a tip.
Bitter or sweet, you need to swallow.
Down your throat, every drip counts
Some people prefer it cold, but you're the hottest.
The sassiness might burn me sometimes.
But it's the reason I like you.
 
All the way from Colombia I'm coming 
All around the world, I'm known.
not for everyone's taste, even though I'm exquisite.
Don't waste me; don't spill me on your shirt.
I'm not an everyday blend; I'm on a deficit.
Black ivory is what I am, not some dirt.
I always come first. I'm number one.
Don’t you dare place me after the dessert.

Set things straight; I can really make you late.
We were meant to be; it's fate.
It was love at first taste.
The ultimate high I badly chased
Insatiable desire lies deep inside.
Filtered or unfiltered down my throat, please slide
Grounded in Colombia; really one of a kind.
From the moment I wake up, you occupy my mind.
Refill; don't get tired; I want another round
Don't you ever leave me; always stick around.
I won't ever pick tea over you.
You always come up with something new.
You are always soaked, never dry.
Don't tell your friends they'll also want to try
My safe haven, the reason behind this warmth that I feel
You could easily become my Achilles heel.
My strength during the week and my weakness on weekends
The coffee is hot, and you are hotter than all the trends.
Blends in well and leaves cream on my face.
Lick it all up and don't leave a trace.
Pace myself; how long can I last?
If you cook me for too long, I could explode with a blast.
Fast in-and-out, I won't give you the chance to pass out.
We could go on like this, you and me, forever, no doubt.
