If we were having coffee
Every paragraph needs to start with these words. Or every stanza of your poem. I would prefer prose for this one. I'm entering this one as an example.

longing

if we were having coffee

rain would be coating the windowpanes

come back to earth by mac miller

playing in the background

the bed unmade in the room behind us

our warmth lingering there

if we were having coffee

it’d be at 10 in the morning

us shivering in our kitchen

standing shoulder to shoulder as we watch

the keurig brew

i’d lean my head on your shoulder and

you’d lean on me

our silence holding

more meaning than any words would carry

you’d follow me to the table by the window

bringing your bowl of cereal

the rain continuing to pour

if only.
