Didn’t set an alarm I’m not late Didn’t rush the pour I’m on a morning detour Took the mug to the porch Let the warmth do its thing Phone face down Ain’t waitin’ on a single ring Watched a bird chase dust through air Thought of things, didn’t really care Sun hit the bricks just right And for once, I didn’t fight They say move fast, catch the train But what if peace comes slow, like rain? I stayed in my robe, felt just fine Drank the first cup, then made time This is my second coffee kind of day Let the world spin, I’ll drift away No meetings, no screens, no finish line Just heat and breath and space that’s mine A second cup, and I reclaim A little joy without a name The plants all leaned toward light Like they knew what felt right No rush to grow, no need to shine Just being alive on borrowed time I opened a book I’ve read before Not to learn — just to explore Each word felt like a friend That didn’t ask me to pretend So here I sit, no reason to leave No fire to chase, no goal to achieve Some days don’t need a win Just enough room to breathe in This is my second coffee kind of day Let the world spin, I’ll drift away No meetings, no screens, no finish line Just heat and breath and space that’s mine A second cup, and I reclaim A little joy without a name I missed a call I didn’t care Sometimes love shows up In how you spare Time for nothing And treat it like gold Second coffee Never gets old This is my second coffee kind of day Nothing to chase, nothing to say Let the headlines pass, I’m here instead With steam and thoughts and an unmade bed No badge, no buzz, no shame Just a second cup with my name
