just one cup of coffee

just one cup of coffee
for the morning he missed while at work
late night too tired to try to think straight
be aware of what’s going on all around
wishing he was sleeping instead up all night
into the new year
today is just like any other day
just one year later soon no one will notice
just one cup of coffee
and then he’s off to somewhere else
playing hide and seek with himself
as the day moves onward
he is still counting on some sort of change
taking over and never letting go
keeping the constant a change that will not stop
no matter how many wishes are made
just one cup of coffee
then he will be on the run
from his own thoughts
and ideas trapped in his cage
created for the rest of us…
