One Side Of The Coin

A free verse poem

One Side Of The Coin

Every time

I entered his space,

I didn’t find

anything I was searching for.

On the table,

I saw one coin-

a one-sided coin

I wished to discard.

Every time

I’d flip the coin,

I’d only find

one side of the coin.

Hunting for a two-sided coin

became impossible-

a giant energy taker

that’d put me to bed.

He was a complex conundrum-

a golden coin

that only had

one side of the coin.

I relinquished,

I uttered to myself,

“You know what?! I can’t solve this mystery anymore! I’m done. Maybe someone else will find another side of the coin.’

That was that.

I no longer

possess the one-sided coin;

that’s tons of weight

off my shoulders!
