How alone is a coin
Thrown in a vast ocean?
In a tailspin of currents and waves
The coin has been haplessly led
Trembling and spinning restlessly
The coin sinks down to the ocean bed
Paddling its boundaries
The coin screams and yells.
But no one arrives,
No effort seems to help
Sinking deep into the dark, the coin smashes its head
On the rocky ocean bed
The coin wonders, will I rust forever or will I rise
Will I live again or will I lay here forever like dead?
How alone is a coin
Thrown in a vast ocean?
I am that coin.
Alone.
