Yesterday's Coffee

Yesterday's Coffee

A Poem by Healing Star
"

How yesterday's coffee taught me to not be worried when things from the past rise up in our lives when we are on a new journey.

"
Oh, it is tasting so good.
Oh, it is all I hoped for.
Oh, it is tasting so good.
Oh, it is all, I needed no more.

I was so in the moment.
I was so taking it all in.
I was so in the moment.
I was happy with all that has been.

Then I took my first sip.
Then I realized something was wrong.
Then I took my first sip.
Then I realized it was too strong.

Oh, it was yesterday's coffee.
Oh, it was bitter to my taste.
Oh, it was yesterday's coffee.
Oh, this wonderful day it would waste.

Then I thought about what had just happened.
I applied it to things that had been going on.
Then I thought about what had just happened.
I thought about it, and a light turned on.

When you are journeying in a new way.
You might taste the bitter of your yesterdays.
When you are journeying in a new way.
You might taste the bitter of your yesterdays.

But know it is just yesterday's coffee.
It really has no hold on you.
Said know it is just yesterday's coffee.
It really has no hold on you.

Oh, it was yesterday's coffee.
Oh, it was bitter to my taste.
Oh, it was yesterday's coffee.
Oh, this wonderful day it would waste.

So don't allow it to bother.
So don't allow it to take you down.
So don't allow it to bother.
So don't allow it to make you frown.

For you are on a higher plain now.
You are on ride to your peace.
For you are on a higher plain now.
The troubles and taste ride far below.

You see with eyes that are so clear now.
You see with eyes that are no longer blurred.
You see with eyes that are so clear now.
You see with eyes that have your cure.

Oh, it was yesterday's coffee.
Oh, it was bitter to my taste.
Oh, it was yesterday's coffee.
Oh, this wonderful day it would waste.

I am a man who has finally realized he needs to write down what matters to him, that I might learn from myself, what is important, what I value. To capture who I am now, for that is all we have is no.. more..
