If we were having coffee,
She would call you for lunch,
He would ask you if you had fever.
If we were having coffee,
Ogling at the other girls ,
Ignoring my words trying to gaze into your soul.
If we were having coffee,
Again you would not spend a penny,
Again a call would come when the bill came.
If we were having coffee,
I’d know I was in my worst nightmare,
And wake up, even at the cost of that coffee.
If we were having coffee,
I’d know what to say, you’d be quiet,
We would part never to have coffee together again.
Today is the final day of the WriteTribe Festival of Words 2017.
We had to use the phrase If we were having coffee as our prompt for the day.

Writing to me is therapy, it frightens and comforts at the same time. Liberates like nothing else. A book in my own name is a dream, but a bigger dream would be to write something that haunts the reader even after the last page is turned and the book is shut. I enjoy reading and music, spending time with family whilst battling my social awkwardness.

Hey Bhavya that wasn’t a very happy coffee meeting was it ;( . Trust it’s purely fiction for coffee almost always makes me happy… nice meeting you during this week.
Loved it… succinct. To the point. And layers upon layers in the brevity of these few lines… Absolutely delightful reading…
Nice post and defiantly one should not have coffee with that kind of person…
If we were having coffee
We would laugh at the blunders we did
We would share stories and say Hi5 at each word.
If we were having coffee
It would be a heartwarming experience
To be treasured. <3

Oh dear, never have coffee with such people. They keep making the same ‘mistakes’ because they don’t really want to have coffee with you. A nice post to end the challenge, Bhavya. Congratulations!
