—a reckless union of caffeine and confession, where warmth meets detonation
It started smooth, a silky sin,
A swirl of warmth that drew you in.
The cream was lush, the whiskey bold,
A comfort served, deceit retold.
You sipped, you smiled, you let it slide,
A quiet quake that burned inside.
The laughter came, the mask held still,
But every gulp unlatched your will.
By halfway through, the courage spoke,
A slurred resolve, a tempered choke.
The bottom showed, the truth laid bare,
An Irish calm with nothing there.
It ended sweet, it ended loud.
A comfort drunk, but not allowed.
