She sipped her coffee
As if the warmth of its body
Permeated through her,
Like the skin of a child against its mother

She sipped her coffee
As a lover does,
With the night chiding the sun,

The memories of silence
Her small heels,
Resting under the table,
Hanging, like the jaws that passed her,

Sipping it carefully,
Gracefully, tempting,
Racing against time

There is no silver lining,
Just a dip of red,
Black coffee,
Resting along the backend of Tuesday morning.

Good read! Flows well with a nice structure. The simplicity sits well with the content giving a great view of the scene.

In such an ugly time, beauty is the real protest

"She sipped her coffee

I smile as I like this vision and the rest of the interesting write....Even the jaws?? But I love it.
