Rainy Morning Cup

[Intro] Rain taps the sill, a soft hello Steam rises like a quiet vow [Verse 1] Morning hush, a kettle sighs, and the cup waits near the window light Dark brew swirls, a velvet tide, warmth that tames the chill of night A second breath, the world slows down, I listen to the quiet sound Of rain on glass and a gentle hum, in this moment I am found [Chorus] First pour, you illuminate the steam and doubt dissolves away Second breath, the present holds me close, I’m here in the gentle gray Tasting stillness on the lips, worries fade and drift aside Here and now, the cup and I, in quiet grace, we coincide [Verse 2] Tiny storms of thoughts retreat as flavors bloom and colors sing Caramel light, a bitter-sweet, a soft reminder of everything Steam climbs up like a drifting prayer, carrying away the fret and fear In this small, perfect sip I land, anchored, clear, and truly here [Chorus] First pour, you illuminate the steam and doubt dissolves away Second breath, the present holds me close, I’m here in the gentle gray Tasting stillness on the lips, worries fade and drift aside Here and now, the cup and I, in quiet grace, we coincide [Bridge] Rain keeps its steady rhythm, time slows to a patient pace In the glow of porcelain morning, I find my center, soft and chaste [Chorus] First pour, you illuminate the steam and doubt dissolves away Second breath, the present holds me close, I’m here in the gentle gray Tasting stillness on the lips, worries fade and drift aside Here and now, the cup and I, in quiet grace, we coincide [Outro] The last warm drop lingers, a seal on a peaceful day Rain keeps time with the steam, and all my storms fall away
