Love Poem: Coin Flip

Coin Flip

I sit here at the waters edge,
I flip a coin and watch it fly.
Heads, you're in love with me,
Tails, you lied.

On one side I'm your soul mate,
you say without me you would die.
you say how much you love me,
you say you'll never leave my side.

On the other side you really hurt me,
you always make me cry.
I'm not sure you'd even care,
if I left and said goodbye.

You broke my heart in pieces,
I will never be the same.
Then you look me in the eyes,
and say I'm your everything.

Tears run down my face.
I don't know what I should do.
fifty percent chance you love me,
fifty percent chance we're doomed.

As I sit here at the waters edge,
I flip the coin way up high.
Knowing if it's Heads, you love me,
and if it's Tails, you lied.

As it flies through the air,
I turn and walk away.
I'll never look back at that coin,
I don't want to know what it will say.
