Cold Tea Blues
If I pour your cup, that is friendship.
And if I add your milk, that's manners.
But If I stop there, claiming ignorance of taste,
That is tea.
But if I measure the sugar
to satisfy your expectant tongue
then that is love,
sitting untouched, and growing cold.
--from "Pale Sun, Crescent Moon" (1994) by the Cowboy Junkies
