If You Ever Wonder Why You Lost Me

If you ever wonder why you lost me
All you have to do is remember
The countless words I spilled for you
Swept aside like autumn leaves
Blown away like apple blossoms
Discarded like old newspapers
Every word a drop of blood
A ray of sunlight
A breath of sea spray
Ignored
Unwanted
Every word, a piece of me
Relinquished wisdom
Burned in the bonfire
Of your bitter life
