The protagonist is feeling troubled while riding the train to Port Henry. He puts the loneliness he's feeling, the memory of his partner's lips, and the idea of her eyes being like two coins into his pockets. He reaches into his pocket for some small change to distract himself. He wants to be strong enough to let his partner know when he's feeling good or bad, and later suggests they enjoy a simple pleasure together, like sharing a cup.
