Lucky Coin

We shared a running joke

That luck was never on our side

But my skies are getting brighter

While you withdraw and hide

 

Our worlds both crashed and crumbled

Rugs ripped out beneath our feet

Repeatedly, that feeling taught us

Not to miss a beat

 

Some believe our thoughts

Can manifest themselves

So I stopped believing luck exists

To save me from myself

 

The beauty of destruction

Is that the brokenness leaves room

For light to find its way in

Allowing seeds of love to bloom

 

We shared a running joke

That luck was never on our side

The more I look around me

The more I think that it’s a lie

 

I surrendered to the chaos

Allowed myself to feel the pain

And finally my seeds are sprouting

Nurtured by the rain

 

Some believe our thoughts

Can manifest themselves

If that’s the case, my darling

You bring your luck upon yourself

 

Seems I’m always on the move

Once again my world upended

But I never missed a beat

I think I finally found my rhythm

 

We shared a running joke

That luck was never on our side

I’m here moving on without you

While you withdraw and hide

 

Our worlds both crashed and crumbled

Rugs ripped out beneath our feet

I thought this time you’d catch me

But instead you missed the beat

 

Some believe our thoughts

Can manifest themselves

It's impossible to love someone

If you can’t love yourself

 

I found a lucky coin last night

While cleaning before I moved

In case our paths might cross again

I saved it just for you.
