I don’t drink coffee.
I quit long ago, don’t remember why.
I quit long ago, you haven’t just noticed yet.
Nevertheless there are two cups on this table.
that is all it takes
to make me feel that we are strangers.
But you are the only stranger who loves me.
You only love me because you don’t know me.
That is all it takes
to make me feel indebted and guilty.
I guess one cup won’t hurt much.

Hi,
I am Nayana Nair. I'm 28. Just a person who has tons of things to talk about....not much organized thoughts sadly.
I'm interested in all forms of storytelling (though I don't have the talent for it). So I like series, movies, novels, anime, and whatnot. I'm also really passionate about music, psychology, learning languages (I just dream big, too undisciplined to makes any actual progress) and literature. I am overall just a curious person who is interested in all kinds of things, as long as they suit my taste.
I always wanted to be a writer (and also a teacher)..But I don't think I have the skills required...this blog is just my attempt at becoming the writer I always wanted to be...Blogging for few years, I have realized I am more of a poet (although, I am not sure that I am good enough for that label)...I hope I realize more about myself through writing.
Thanks for dropping by!! Hope I didn't disappoint. :)

I donโt care much for coffee
Does coffee care for me?
My cup is always empty
Is that how it should be?
We sit here at the table
At night we share a bed
Your ring upon my finger
But are we really wed?
You ask me how Iโm feeling
I say Iโm feeling fine
But I donโt care much for coffee
Iโm in the mood for wine
Wow! Loved this poem.
Thank you for writing something so beautiful in response to my poem. Really appreciate it.

Welcome.
On my second cup of coffee reading you…
Thank you ๐ ๐ Glad to hear that.
I am glad to know that my poems could give you company for coffee. ๐
Wow! I really loved this!! Loved the internal inner voice conversation and the final outcome! Made me think of the first time I meet my wife for a coffee after four days of email on Match.com (over 500 pages). She was the stranger who learned to love me!! Really a great poem – Bellissimo!!
xoxo
Wow! So glad you found your love. Yupp, sometimes we need to take that bit of effort, to actually know and love the other person. The story of how you met your wife is so sweet and warm.
We can never know how and where we might find the one.
Really glad that you liked my work ๐ Thank you so much. ๐
Yes, I loved your work, so much!! Yes, I was really blessed to find an Angel!! She was very brave – she answered my profile headline “Stoplight kisser, seeking kissee” and without a photo!! Seemed meant to be for me! Ha!

Sometimes it is nice to drink a cup of coffee with the person you love,
sometimes it is nice to drink a cup of coffee alone, just with yourself.
And sometimes it is nice to drink a cup of coffee with an unknown person, who later will become your friend, perhaps.
So true ๐ ๐
Wonderful
Really glad that you liked it ๐
Thank you ๐
