Coin in the Well

I wish you’d love me like you did.

I wish you’d love me like I loved you. 

I wish I was more than a beggar.

And a hypocrite.

I wish I wasn’t split. 

Down the middle.

From birth. 

Between worlds.

Across identities. 

Betwixt your love and what’s good for me.

Amongst the stars and here on Earth. 

I wish for someday. 

And maybe today.

More than tomorrow. 

Never less than yesterday.

Forever, and always. 

Not anymore. 

And a hell of a lot, to even the score.
