Wondering

Will you be my shiny coin in the fountain water?
Will you make my wish come true?
Am I a color, a figure, a particle of matter?
Or am I a real person to you?

Secret Solitude

When you get to my door
Gently turn the knob
I must conceal the real
Let them think I'm a snob

Will you take the time to figure me out?
I might be out on the ledge
I'm like a puzzle with a gazillion pieces
It won't take much to put me over the edge

Why is a boxing ring not round?
Impatient persons need not apply
Why does my soul make a solemn sound?
You oughta know by now I need not lie

I hear you boy
You speak with compassion
I might not understand all the lyrics
But I feel your passion

Why are you flirting with me boy?
You know I want to deal with the real
These games you use to test
I really must protest

We will all be on the same road in the end
Stripped naked no more reasons to pretend

My head and my loin think in different spaces
Why is everything connected with a pair of shoelaces?
So easily united
So easily un-tied
Secret solitude
