Coin Toss

what happens now?
your future love secure
the shadow laying dormant
the door left ajar

were you successful in separating
the fact from the fiction?
without delving too deep
and causing more friction

one heart secure
the other wild and free
one strokes your mind
the other stokes your needs

do you finally read the book?
from cover to cover
solve all the mystery
see what's uncovered

the choice always yours
as you flip the quarter
is it heads or tails?
is it friend, is it lover?

one heart secure
the other wild and free
one strokes your mind
the other stokes your needs
