Wishing Her Well
A penny for your thoughts she said
So I threw my coin into the well
I did not make a wish as it hit the water
I but marveled at the ripples that multiplied from the center
She saw the circles reflect back from the eyes of my heart
And before I could tell her my thoughts
She knew what we both had been thinking for too long
A bottomless pool filled with too many discarded tokens
As I watched her walk away I took the stone from my pocket
I threw it in just to feel it sink
