"Lucky Penny"
I threw it into the deep. This is therapeutic, my lucky penny buried under a ton of water in this lake.
My charm kept me company, though the bright side is tarnished, this time it was spent on actual luck that i tucked in and covered up, bridging the lines under my collar and cuffs of the outfit that i chose for the evening.
At the bottom of that pond, the fish couldn't help me reach my change.
The copper plated money that i had always kept with me.
Febuary 8th, i just stood on the dock and remembered the advice that i had received earlier that day, that he told me 'only the weak apologize', and so i knew exactly what i needed to do, take a row boat out to find my forgotten treasure.
I came back on the 28th, rowed out, stood, removed my shoes. Put my palms together and dove into the icey chill. As i sunk lower, i noticed frostbite setting in.
Held my breath for even longer as i reached the bottom to my goal.
I grabbed my good luck and swam back up to the surface. My mouth broke the top as i took a breath; the cold air kills my lungs. Swam back to the boat and dried myself off.
And it seems like all of this was worth it. Febuary was worth it's weight in gold.
