Waiting for the trash [129]
Waiting for the trash

Lost thoughts, half-baked ideas,
old photos no one asks to see,
the litter of a life lived long
but not too well it seems.
Their stench of disappointment fades
and in that box I never open
daydreams I dared to dream.

They beg to be released,
but I've ignored them for so long
they're just memories waiting for the trash
like that tiny box
you ask about, as if you do not know
that's where I've kept my heart
hoping it would someday grow.
