have a sip of tea - life at first sight

have a pot of tea.

imagine sipping from a warm pot of tea.

when you take that first sip,

what type of tea did you imagine drinking?

is it light?

bitter?

sweet?

was the flavor,

a delicate blend of chamomile and honey?

soothing your senses with its gentle sweetness?

'cause in a world transformed by a pandemic,

a pot of tea became a sanctuary.

its warmth embraced us,

a refuge from realities.

throughout the pandemic,

our lives transformed in unpredictable ways.

in that tranquil moment,

dreams are woven into reality.

dreams intertwined with reality,

a tapestry woven with hope and hardship.

so did you dream a dream?

'cause we did.

ever wonder how one pandemic has changed all of us.

for the better or not,

it depend.

across digital landscapes,

crossing oceans.

we found solace in newfound friendships from corners of the world we'd never have explored otherwise.

new friendships blossomed,

transcending borders,

defying oceans.

oceans were crossed,

not just in miles but in experiences shared.

we navigated this uncharted territory,

how was yours like?

ours was wild.

our shared journey wild and untamed.

some said sometimes it takes ten years to get that one year that changes your life,

ours did.

let me tell you our story for CreateTogether.

and you can decide on what you think.

life at first sight.

just show me how to work the washing machine,

and i'm good, she stated.

it was just a sip, they said,

it was just a look, they said,

it was just a smile, they said.

it was, it was, it was, it was—

it was were the words that echo in their ears.

it was just winery grape mixed with some sweet and salty cream on top,

it was just tax, he said,

it was you who make me want to learn, she said.

it was just a teasing of some sunscreen that pushed both over the edge,

it was just a dumpling t-shirt,

it was just the beauty of a smile that captured the black heart,

the hardened heart.

it was the annoyance of a few teasings that melted both of theirs,

it was just fall guys,

it was just tetris,

it was just a starcraft,

it was just movie night,

it was the command of google home that sparked the backward teasing,

it was just a few teasings of baby shark shark shark.

it was the desire to beat his annoying ass that cracked the ice,

it was the exchange of gifts that opened their hearts.

it was the desire to win an act iii game to prove a point that broke the wall.

it was you who could finish all of his sentences, they witnessed.

it was thy lady's over-possessive love that drove him nuts.

it was just black water,

it was just a weighted blanket,

it was just las vegas,

it was just new york,

it was just a meet-up,

it was just a grapefruit joke,

it was just a song,

it was just some flowers,

it was their grammar's inside joke that became their thing,

it was two became one.

it was just a breakout room,

it was life at first sight for thy lady.

it was just chipotle,

it was the uninvited letter that sparked the winning and losing.

it was just watching you sleep,

then it turned into it is.

where are you?

the leaves have fallen,

the day you left.

the night was freezing,

that night.

they keep thinking you would come back to them,

they keep waiting for you like a fool.

you are their lady nej,

you are their lady nej.

missing and longing,

you are their rock.

you are their rock,

their titanium rock.

please return to where you were.

it was,

& you returned,

but then it was, and burned.

& then,

it is life at first sip, so sweet,

until it was defeated.

'til it is,

to it was, for some to find,

to some, it was the past,

a promise that couldn't last.

to it was just a promise, it seemed,

just a promise once more,

just a promise in the end,

just a promise once again,

like waves upon a shore.

was it?

-so are you it was, it is, or was it?-
