Between ******* I hold a coin
a token of unspoken desires
it doesn't matter if it's a penny turned teal
because right now the cold of the metal
is all that I can feel
You're supposed to toss it in
Throw your hopes into the water
Shut your eyes and make a wish
Trust the earth's everlasting hunger
Hold your breath, give the wind a kiss
I allow gravity to take its course
watching the sparkle through the dark depths
seeing my dreams being swallowed
submerged in lies and forgotten lives
and everyone who followed
