Pennies


With heart now open And course set far I shouldn't wonder where you are Upon the roof, Face towards the sky With new hope I have yet to try My path is how I forced it be Scattered sunsets I will see But as of yet Something still lost Puzzle pieces thrown and crossed I can't quite learn Or decipher Missing what is gone, for sure. Once was my wish To start anew But then, I thought mem'ries were few As recently I've felt the void Not with much else my mind has toyed This emptiness I have discovered By pennies passing o'er have covered. I use to yearn Deep in my heart For nothing but my troubles part For summer's end To fast draw near, To call another, them to hear And now confused, Torn, frightened a bit What if my life soon does not fit?
