It never disappoints
always faithful to rescue me
from my desperate days of parched dreams.
All the passion it inspires
from the succulent stream of relief
that truly graces on my soul.
Not a day passes that this glorious source
doesn’t purge me of my angst,
how I survive and cherish
our times together,
gently cradling its form in my arms,
enraptured by its presence
because I know in a few seconds
my sadness and suffering will be washed away.
As I stroll to that temple
where our communion will end my misery,
I slip my treasured
sixty four ounce ARCO am/pm cup
under the dispenser,
seconds later in refill diet coke heaven.

You took me by surprise! Well done. For me, the saviour is always coffee but coke is an occasional enjoyment.
