I’m glad it’s trash day
The bin is full
Of what I once guarded
Like a pulse
The truck arrives
No pause
No mercy
Just metal taking metal
I stand in the cold
With the last scrap of you
Weightless in my hand
Heavy everywhere else
I’m glad it’s trash day
At least something
Still knows
How to leave

If not the person at least memories of past and pain that needs to be discarded on a regular basis to keep the house clean. Nicely written
