Spilled Coffee

spilling coffee is more than 
just spilling coffee
the motions of lift & sip
a familiar trip
the flavors of sugar & cream
taste like a sweet dream
all of a sudden washed down the drain
in complete & utter vain
a spill? just my luck
just another screw up
a mess to clean
I hadn't foreseen
the warm good morning
turned cold without warning
the birds who used to sing
now cry with a broken wing
the start of a good day
I now stare at in dismay
lying on the counter
surround a vase of flower
I feel my mood start to wain
with cold & bitter pain
it's more than just spilled coffee
it's a heartbreak you see
