The Coin Tossed Into The Blue Pond I can't help but to toss a coin into the blue pond Sit on a bench and stare at the stars find the most brightest and hope that it'll fall down To dig a hole and peer deep inside fill it with water and then jump in I've become ink, a stain on the floor and no amount of doves can brighten the night Caught in the blades of a old wish When the earth beneath the ground held steady And you were there by the candle light At least in my mind’s eye Stuck on like glue, a new version of an old song a stack of cards that are kept at bay Escape a fire to feel the warm breeze And there is no round iris in the sky to illuminate these blurry roads And I'm lost in the forest like a blind and hungry toad To pull one out is to upset the flame I see the star who caught your attention And it's dim rays of light are just too hard to comprehend but I try to be content with the seas it has decided to sail on To pick from the top of the deck A cheap trick I decide against although it's hard to move on these dark roads are not steady And I've become the crass protagonist of a story that ends badly on either side 25 thoughts sunk into an abyss of blue 25 nights with a dark moon and I still dream of you
