Coffee, I AM

Folder: 
Understanding

I can assure you

a fresh cup of coffee,

music, and being home

can solve 90% of your problems.


This isn't cliche

this is my realization today

because no matter how different you think we all are

I dare you to understand the meaning behind I AM.


You see

Coffee, Music and being at home 

was the key to

relaxing in the present moment

and realizing

I AM,Is

ALL

THAT-

saved me.


There was chaos inside

for one day the demons 

came alive,

they were ready to play.

Screaming, crying, swearing, driving away-

cussing truths, craving for something more!

Pedal to the metal, 

horn whailing, screaming while drowning in tears,

trying to feel no more.


I've felt hunger,

in a world of grass fed lies,

all I wanted was a fresh salad,

hold the fries

give back the processed meat

to the industrialized farmers

in disguise.


I've craved love,

so full of my own,

humble enough to give it away- 

but in my darkness 

I was shown-

guided by my intuition

straight to the stage

where I shine brightest

without anyone elses' shadows 

in my way.


But I wanted that comfort-

from no stranger in town,

musta been the desire 

for all knowing love

from the big man and the angels

looking down.


I've felt the darkness,

supressed deep down

desperation to live to full poetential,

redemption to be accepted-

no consequential actions

waiting in line,

from the memories of the moment

I taste that home grown

numb my body for the first time

silincing those demons in my mind;

when I took that last sip of coffee 

before the next song came on,

writing wisdom

from darkness

the sweet essence

of self.

I AM,

helped.
