If we were having a cup of coffee right now, I’d look at you and try to read the emotions in your eyes. Even if you tell me you’re great, I’d check just to make sure your feelings aren’t being masked behind a smile.
If we were having a cup of coffee right now, and you were happy both inside and out I’d congratulate you on getting yourself this far. I’m proud of your progress and would sit and listen to you rant about all that you’ve achieved and faced.
If we were having a cup of coffee right now, and you were feeling down both inside and out I’d congratulate you on being able to accept all the emotions you experience. I’d then sit and listen to whatever is going on in your life and help you see the greatness that you’ve had trouble to recognise.
If we were having a cup of coffee right now, and you were smiling but had broken glass eyes I’d come closer and tell you that it’s going to be alright. Don’t be ashamed or scared to truly express your feelings. Live and embrace both your ups and downs, and remember it’s not you being weak but in all reality stronger than you’ve ever been. Sure it feels like you’re living in a Nightmare one which would startle you awake at night, but remember after every hardship is an ease. It might be Unpredictable but stay strong and be ready to fully embrace and enjoy the end of this dream.
If we were having a cup of coffee right now, I’d tell you stay in touch and I can’t wait to see you next time.
Beautiful 🙂 It takes a treasured friend to see beneath the surface, and a treasured friend to trust enough to let the depths be seen. And, of course, coffee helps 🙂 Harula x

Very true. Hopefully everyone has that person that they trust and are open with.
Thank you for the comment and like 🙂

It’s difficult here—lots of personal stuff going on, and the societal upheaval is definitely a concern. But we keep going, and talking to one another helps.

A cup of coffee does seem tempting, but I’m pretty sure it’s not quite possible. 😜

I’m guessing you’re usually used to getting a yes 😜

Why, thank you. 😊
Actually, sorry to tell that you are wrong, I have my coffee, alone. So no, I’m not used to getting a yes. I’ve never asked anyone.
That’s alright. It’s not like I was asking for a coffee date or something. Don’t take it literally.
Having said that, if you weren’t up for a coffee, I am not sure you would listen to someone’s story, look beneath the eyes for the actual story, understand what the real person hiding beneath the mask is.
I think I need to get a coffee, alone! 😐

I’m sorry you think I’m like that. I answered the question with the truth. Ofcourse I’d be willing for a coffee but got to know a little bit about the person before I agree on looking deeper.
Guess it’s from previous experience. Although once again I’m sorry I seemed to be any different to what I was portraying in my post above. But every word I post is 100% true.
You seem nice so I’ll be here whenever you want to “drink coffee”. You don’t need to drink it alone.

You apologise a lot for something you didn’t even do.
Yes, I understand your reply and it was just, considering I being a stranger without a name. That is completely understandable from your point of view. And it’s only fair that you get to know a person a little bit before you start diving into the eyes.
I don’t know about your previous experiences so I can’t make a statement out there. Your words were genuine and I appreciate that.
But hypothetically speaking you don’t know me, I don’t know you and even if I had had the conversation about knowing each other, there is no chance that there will be a coffee and you decoding the story behind the eyes. I was really looking forward for a formal sitdown.
As for I am coffee, I kind of have it alone. It’s not like I don’t like company, its’ more like no one is interested in giving a company. But that was sweet of you. Thank you. 🙂

You are a genuinely nice and sweet person. I’m here if you’d ever like to introduce yourself with name.
Just from a couple of comments I can see you’re someone people would like to look at deeper in order to decode the story hidden within your eyes.
Don’t think otherwise. Be willing to let people in, trust them to see what it is you have hidden. Keep an eye out for those who want to truly know your story.

We might have a competetion for who is the nicer and sweeter person, but you would win in the end.
I know that you’re here. I got that from the post I read and the comments you wrote.
I don’t think people would be as intruiged as you might think. But thank you for the happy thought. 🙂
It’s not about trusting and I, it’s just that no one is interested and also I am not the most talking person either. Its a defect from my end, I guess. But yes, I will keep an eye out for people willing to hear me out. Thank you, again. 🙂

I love Cup of Coffee #3. If you ever need someone to talk to, I opine almost as well as I whine. I must warm you I have the usually masculine (thanks ASD) trait of trying to fix, but I’ll listen! When we try to understand each other the world falls into place.
