Wicked Wizard's Reply

White lies
Cover the rainfall again
Same replies

Dream on
Wishing wells run like the wind
Pennies being tossed on a whim
Ripple the heartstrings again

and speaks of devotion.
It's thrown to the ocean

Does this heart need a puncture of faith?
Is this papercut going to waste?

All that is asked is a treasure of longing,
a whisper of holding. An absence of wronging.
A penny of music
A potion of fingers entwined
