Coffee
People are like coffee.
Some are bitter,
Some are sweet.
Some so artificial
That what they actually are,
Has become almost obsolete.
Some ice cold
Some frozen to the core
Some so hot
That sometimes,
When you try to get too close
Too fast
Sometimes you get burned.
People are like books.
Some good for a bad mood,
When your day needs turned around
Some for when you need a laugh
Or maybe just a friend.
Some are liked by everyone
Some by none at all
Some make you cry,
Some make you bawl..
Some can change your life
Others change your heart,
Your very being,
Who you are.
Some are fantastic,
Unique,
And wonderful,
But don’t get the attention that is deserved.
Some
Based solely on the cover,
Look boring, bland
Totally mundane
But after you take a peek inside,
You’ll never be the same.
People are like coffee,
Or like books.
People give,
People take.
People lie
And people look.
People hate with blazing passions,
But love with tender hearts.
People live
And people die
Never satisfied,
Never stopping.
People fall apart.
People are like people,
Though they pretend
there are metaphors that better fit
People are like people.
There’s nothing that can change it.
