A Throw Away

 A Throw Away


Just like the first gift you open

That you disregard and discard

So forgotten it was nearly included

In the wrapping remnants left on the floor

I find myself curdling in fetal position

On the same floor waiting to be thrown away 


Get a way, find a way, fade away

Live away, know a way, go away 

Stay away, far away, thrown away


Feeling so inconsequential

Even the refuse crew

Didn’t notice me when

I’m right here 


Just like a flower blooming just 

Before the first autumnal freeze

You don’t notice, much less appreciate it

Even though it’s right there in front of you 

It’s wasting away having wasted so much time 

A waste of potential gone and thrown away 


Get a way, find a way, fade away

Live away, know a way, go away 

Stay away, far away, thrown away


Feeling so inconsequential

Even my whole world now 

Didn’t notice me when

I’m right here 

Just like always

I’m right here

Bound to be

Thrown away.
