April 28th - Espresso Royale Caffe (sic)

Ten of Hearts - Espresso Royale Caffe (sic)
2 - Shakespearean Sonnet


You were the one I loved most for a time
I looked towards our daily rendezvous
I kept your values and your heart with mine
And found euphoria inside of you
Your humble features pleasing to my eye
I stood completely rapt beneath your spell
But when the time was right to say goodbye
With joyful tears I bid you fond farewell

Your fortunes promised to another man
He made you change your body and your face -
While I grew older in another land -
Resulting in this unfamiliar place

Alas you have become a different store
Where drip-brewed coffee costs a dollar more
